  1. Technical Support Information

Traditional Paragraph Numbering is the numbering scheme in which SpecsIntact used since its conception, whereas the SubpartThe levels below a Part are referred to as Subparts. These Subpart levels are then broken down into and referenced as Articles, Paragraphs and Subparagraphs, although the share the same Subpart <SPT> Tag and Title numbers within the TTL Tag would differ from the SPT tag once the editing process began. The Numeric Paragraph numbering was replaced with the Automatic Paragraph Numbering, which is the new default.  With the traditional numeric numbering scheme the Subpart number displayed in the SPT tag would be the correct number. Only when the Sections were processed, the Titles would be renumbered.

Although the numeric format for Automatic Paragraph NumberingThis feature automatically generates the Subpart Numbers for Numeric and  Alphanumeric Formatted Sections by placing the correct Subpart Numbers between the Subpart  <SPT> and the Title <TTL> tags.  Unlike Traditional Paragraph Numbering, the number within the Subpart Tag and the auto-generated Title number will always match.  This provides the capability to easily switch numbering schemes regardless of the original setup appears to be the same, they are not.  With this numbering, the Subpart numbers will always appear within the TTL TagsSpecsIntact relies on tags to control content, and formatting, automate processes, and generate reports. These special markers, like <SEC> and </SEC>, define elements and attributes within the specifications. Some tags, like <Page />, function independently. In essence, tags are the building blocks of SpecsIntact documents along with three spaces and the title.
