This seemed to confuse LPub and result in the problems I saw.  I converted all
the dots to dashes and now it is OK.

OK, good tip for other users too, to not use dots in filenames.

This leads me to a couple of other questions next:

I have some assemblies in the model which are mirrored left and right using a
tranformation matrix.  LPub does not show and assembly being built mirrored.
Any way around this or do I have to actually create all the assemblies
individually?

I believe you have to create the submodels individually indead. That is what I
always do anyway.

What about LSynth assemblies?  For example, I have a Technic Flexible Axle
consisting of two ends and a bunch of center parts.  I know how to use PLI IGN
to get it to NOT appear in the parts list, but how I do get an actual flexible
axle to appear in the parts list?

I'm afraid I do not have the exact answer to that, but I believe LPub it self
draws LSynth pieces in the PLI.

(...) There are some programs available to create mirrored subparts without using a mirror matrix. (URL) don't know how well they work with all the new parts since they were developed, but it can't hurt to try them. Enjoy, Don (15 years ago, 27-Oct-09, to lugnet.cad)

As long as we're having such a good dialog, here is another one. I have a very large assembly which is too large to fit on one page and still see the building details. I can zoom in and the assembly simply hangs off the edges of the page. The (...) (15 years ago, 27-Oct-09, to lugnet.cad)

(...) While creating instructions I have discovered that you can use extra dots in filenames as long as the name of the model before the first dot is unique per step in a callout. For example if you a filename like submodel.1.ldr and submodel.2.ldr (...) (15 years ago, 28-Oct-09, to lugnet.cad)
