OK, this is driving me mad - please help someone :-)
In my series numbering - "proper" books in the series get their integer series number - if there's a "pre" book that gets published I use fractions to order them - if there is an "about the series" style book I "number" them using the year they were published.
I have been using a plugboard to allow me to email books to my kindle so I get
Series Name [03] Book Title
but have noticed that these then sort alphabetically not numerically
i.e.
[1]
[1999]
[2]
So I've spent all afternoon investigating how to tweak it so they sort properly
Adding loads of zeros obviously works but I don't like the look
I then though I would use the "spaces before" option but no matter what I do it only seems to add one space before the shorter numbers
-35
-1
1999
where - is a space
Please tell me I am incredibly stupid and there's an easy way of getting what I want :-)
