How do I add paragraph numbering to my book?

You can number the paragraphs in your books by adding the following code to your CSS: 

.chapter {
counter-reset: paragraph;
}
p::before {
content: counter(paragraph);
counter-increment: paragraph;
}

Please note that:

a) This method may or may not have been exhaustively tested for use in all formats and themes, and

b) Pressbooks cannot offer comprehensive technical support for customization to users' CSS.
