Using placement features new to LPub 4 (placing callouts relative to step
group), I was able to eliminate about 1/3 of your pages.
Also, LPub 4 tries to size the PLIs in step groups based on the size of the
assembly step automatically if you do not have metas that specify PLI
constraints. I removed a bunch of your PLI constraints (using the edit
window), and this helped things pack more densely.

Another thing that LPub 4 does is automatically center step groups and assembly
steps in the center of the page. If there is a single step and with callout(s)
on the page, then LPub calculates the enclosing box of the assembly and
callout(s) and centers it in the center of the page. It does the same thing for
a page with a step group with callouts placed relative to the step group.
This way, the instructions tend to be automatically centered.

Hmmm.... I will dig into this. BOM should not be limited to back cover page
(i.e. it should be placable on front cover page). It is not placable on
pages with steps.

LPub will let you “Add Bill of Materials” on front or back cover pages, but not
on pages with steps.
