Display Line Numbers – the popular line numbering add-on for Adobe InDesign – has now been updated to version 4.1.0.
Version 4.1.0 includes:
- Full support for text frames containing endnotes.
- Bug fix for InDesign 2020: Owing to an Adobe bug, the checkboxes in the list of paragraph styles on the left were not appearing. There is no way to get those checkboxes back until Adobe fixes the bug, so instead this version provides a different visual cue to see which paragraph styles have been selected for numbering.

December 15, 2020 10:11 amI have version 4.0.1 on InDesign 2019 and I can’t find the option “Automatically restart the numbering whenever a particular paragraph style is reached (for instance, a “Poem Title” style).”

March 15, 2022 9:30 amI bought LineNumber for PC and now it won’t work on my Indesign CS6. I keep getting this error when I click to run the script from the scripts panel.
Reference ERROR: ENDNOTE TEXT FRAME IS UNDEFINED
and there is no file to tell me how to use the product.
Help

March 16, 2022 3:39 amHi Pam,
The update to Line Numbers that added endnote support seems to have made it impossible to run the script on versions that don’t have endnotes.
I’ve now fixed this problem, so please update to the very latest version (4.1.4) which I posted today. Version 4.1.4 works both on the latest versions of InDesign, and on the old CS6, for those still using that version.
The update is available here: https://www.id-extras.com/shopping-cart/my-account/
Instructions for using the script are on the main webpage, here: https://www.id-extras.com/products/line-numbers/
It’s fairly simple to use, so I haven’t put together a dedicated help page for it. I think you’re the first to ask for that. If it’s something people want, I will do so.
Thanks,
Ariel
