observation about ADE page numbers

[charleski]

The thing is that you probably still want page numbers to appear in the status bar. So you'd need to insert anchors in the right places and create a page-map file with entries like

<page name=" " href="[fragment]"/>

There might be a way to get ADE to generate the default 1024-character numbering and trick it into not showing, as the first error seems to be related to a clash between generated and specified page numbers and some of my experiments resulted in nothing showing except the first number in a file.

Well, I finally got rid of those blasted numbers on the Story HD by locating the font it used for the numbers (by trial & error replacing all font files with dingbat fonts - on the Story HD it turned out to be a font called Myriad Pro) and then blanking the 0-9 glyphs inside that font itself. The result is that it still THINKS it's rendering and displaying the page numbers but since the modified font causes the number to be rendered as Nothingness of Invisibility, the actual result is no more blasted numbers in the text.

The downside to this is of course that if the same font is used for any other text anywhere, the numbers will be missing there, too. So there may be some collateral damage involved. I tested some documents and couldn't find a case of this happening anywhere though.
