The last line in my Credits list on the Verso page is: "All other illustrations by Markus ..."

The problem is that there are only two Markus illustrations in the publication: on pages 3 and 5 of a 140-page book. So tagging them on as a group at the end feels awkward. And my publications dept would prefer that all page numbers be included, without a catch-all statement at the end.
I could type the list manually in PTX Print Front Matter if necessary, but it seems like an option to produce this format would be a nice extra snippet or something.
[I think Bloom specifies all the pic credits except the copyright holder with the largest # of pics--this goes into "all other ...", which seems more logical to me.]

"all the pic credits except the copyright holder with the largest # of pics--this goes into "all other ...""

I believe that this is exactly what PTXprint does as well. The one with the most pics should be one at the end with "All other..."

Could you try pasting an image again - for us to see what you're seeing. [Unfortunately this site is still broken, and the only way to get a picture in here is to click on the Image icon and upload a file as an image. Pasting an image from the clipboard used to work, but doesn't at present. Perhaps if some more of us complain about it, it might get fixed one day.]

Here's the screenshot of my credits page. Würzer is in the last catch-all line. But there are only 2-3 Würzer illustrations, including the first pic in the text, at Gen 1:1. I've been assuming this first-pic position triggered the remainder credits position somehow. But it's consistent ever since I've been working on this publication. Looks like DCC is the most listed illustrator, but I think it requires page#s to be listed. The Scrip Pub folks here don't like the catch-all style.

(I was wondering why my dropped-in pic came up gibberish! It was a bit awkward and unintuitive to get this shot into here. Where do I complain about the broken paste feature?)

First things first: "Where do I complain about the broken paste feature?"  Have a look for the yellow Feedback button at the bottom right of this screen. :-)

Yes, something hasn't worked out right if Markus Wurzer only has 2 illustrations. It should have said all other illustrations by David C Cook (as that is the majority by far). So we need to look into that as a bug.

But what I'm hearing you say is that your Branch Publication Dept doesn't want *any* "all other" statement - but that every picture's page needs to be listed explicitly. That's not currently possible, but it probably wouldn't be too much of an effort to add that as an Advanced > Other > Show All Pages for Illustrations toggle.

This has been fixed (awaiting release in v3.0.0) and there is a new option to show all pages, for all artists:

Which should result in something like this (ordered in general by page number rather than artist name/code):

I hope that keeps the Publication Dept happy!

Thank you for fixing this, Mark and team!
