Problem relinking content from "master" documents

hi

we have 1 "master" pages document text found in our assembly manuals. 

from there use content collector tool copy paste content various manuals. way when edit text/ picture. it's changed in manuals @ once. in "master" pages document have versions of specific text laying on different pages next each other. 1 page per version. 1 page per language.

 

however, if insert new page in middle of document ( instead of after last page) links in connected manuals changes because linked, first page number, content on page in "master" page document. new pages means page number change below new page.

 

the problem when more versions/languages need added, page nr change , "parenting" work previous manuals lost.

the way add end of document. variations of 1 page spread out between pages 10,11,56 , 213  instead of 10,11,12 , 13. hope makes sense. 

 

is there way around or should use incopy maybe. ( never worked program)

you use incopy content without incopy. export asset incopy story. can place in other document , check out editing wherever yyou want. after saving documents changed after updating links.
