Re: [docbook-apps] page numbering, yet another

This simple solution that I recently received off list will work in the
1.66.1 stylesheets to number a document from page 1 all the way through in
arabic numerals.

Hi Bob,

A 'normal' book (like a novel) is numbered from the first page to the
end without chapter restart.

I want to have this behaviour.

I have altered the preface numbrering to suppress it (ie roman
characters) but I do not want the chapte 1 restart.

The TOC is 'good' in the sense of it shows the pages as numbered from
chapter 1.

In a few words, I want the book numbrered from the first page to the
end.

Thanks

Christian
