Re: [docbook] Help with paragraph numbering

Hi,
There is no paragraph numbering feature built into the XSL stylesheets, but 
it could be done using a customization layer with a customization of the 
template handling the para element.  That template is in fo/block.xsl and 
looks like this:

<xsl:template match="para">
  <fo:block xsl:use-attribute-sets="normal.para.spacing">
    <xsl:call-template name="anchor"/>
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </fo:block>
</xsl:template>

You could add some code to generate a number and call it before the 
xsl:apply-templates.  I'd suggest some code, but I don't understand your 
numbering scheme.
