RE: [docbook-apps] linenumbering for entire document?


Ooops.

Looks like I spoke too soon. I just _knew_ that Word document was suspiciously small... Turns out that none of the images are embedded in the document instead they are just links, like the original <img> tags I guess. This means that you have to either convert the Word document to PDF, or somehow convert the images to be embedded in the document, before sending it to anyone else. :(
