Default 1/2 Page Numbers

I have created a Publisher Document that I am using as a manual. I will
periodically publish updates to the manual and may need to insert pages. I
would like to be able to number these new pages with decimals - for example,
if I insert a two pages between pages 4 and 5, I would like to number the new
pages 4.1 and 4.2. Is there anyway I can do this??? When I go into the
format area it makes me choose a whole number.

Default 1/2 Page Numbers

Apply a different Masterpage where the format for page numbering is 4.#
Start the number over from 1 by inserting a section. Then on the following
section restart the number from 5. By combining masterpages with sections you
can create just about any page numbering scheme you want to but you'll still
have to manage it carefully. For instance, if you deleted page 3 in the
scenario you describe you would have to change the master page to 3.#, it
would not do it for you automatically.

Insert a section. Start the section with page 4, go to the master page and add
..1 after the # symbol. Read the help on sections and master pages.
