copy/paste, "print", paste in from page, to to page
Result:
> print pages in range from: 1, 003
> print pages in range to 4
Now have I have two errors to fix: page 1003 to page 1004. Not nice. Who formats like this?!
-------------------
Also, some RPG books or encyclopedias I own have chapter that span like this:
p. 630 to p. 70 (book 2)
To me, now is unclear, is that 70 with a reset page count, or 670 for book 2?
Since I just now learned that a quotation standard somewhere outside Germany exists that omits leading numbers, I now need to manually check where it ends.
TL;DR:
Don't make me think, and allow for automation. So just write on more number.
