Hello Bob,

You can use XEP intermediate format for this purpose. For every
element with ID XEP generates an xep:target element in the output XML.
Its 'name' attribute contains ID value. Since intermediate format
includes page division information (every page represented by xep:page
element) you can build id-page_number map by the means of simple XSLT
postprocessing. 

Best regards,
Alexander Peshkov                             mailto:peshkov at renderx.com

BS> Is it possible with XEP to extract information on page numbers to a file
BS> other than the PDF file?  That is, for each input element with an id
BS> attribute, can XEP emit the page number that the element ends up on in the

BS> This feature could be useful for forming cross references between documents,
