suppress line numbers (and count) on a section

OK, so here is something I need to do in several documents that I can do in Word but I can't seem to find a way to do it in NWP. Here are the conditions:

1. In a portion of a text (a paragraph, to be exact) I want to stop counting line numbers and then resume them again where it left off.

2. I can not use section breaks as there are footnotes involved in the numbered and un-numbered lines of text (sections breaks will force a new page even if I select Section Brake > Same Page).

In Word I simply select the paragraph I do not want to count lines on and select Format > Paragraph... and tell it not to count in that section.

Any suggestions?

I'm sorry to say that I don't think there is any real solution for you. NWP simply does not have the feature to suppress line numbering on a per-paragraph basis.

Depending on your needs, one thought is to place that paragraph into a single table cell with no borders. Each table row is only counted as one line in the main document.

Sorry to not have better news.

Hmm... I'll try the table approach and see, the scale of the project might be manageable enough for this hack. Thanks!
