Re: [docbook-apps] does docbook support more than one orderedlist continuation?


No way to do it automatically that I know of.  But you can manually restart
the numbering on an orderedlist by setting the override attribute on the
first listitem:

<orderedlist>
<listitem override="3">

The rest of the listitems will follow along after 3.
