830.0. "Editing Page Nos. in TOC" by CRVAX1::SHEPPARD () Wed Aug 19 1987 19:17

    Is there any way to edit the page numbers in a table of contents
    file?  (NOTE:  I would also need to know how to prevent the 
    table of contents file from being deleted automatically.)
    
    I am preparing update pages for a large documentation set.  The
    original documents were prepared with an earlier version of
    DOCUMENT.  The new DOCUMENT uses some different fonts; therefore,
    the paging is different for the new documents than it is 
    for the original documents.  I can control the paging on 
    the update pages; however, the new table of contents contains
    incorrect page numbers for those portions of the document 
    that were not updated.
    
    Thanks!
    Jane

    
    If you specify /KEEP=TEX when you process the file, the
    filename_CONTENTS.TEX file will not be deleted. You can edit this
    file to change the page numbers, then process it using /NOTAG.
