Kenneth,  hopefully with the new patch you obtained from Kurzweil you will 
no longer experience the amazing proliferation of spurious page breaks. 
That should make it much easier for you to perform a page integrity check 
on your books prior to submission.  It is truly of the utmost importance 
that you do so,  because while it will take you about 10 minutes to check 
the book and remove spurious pages,  an perhaps an extra 15 to integrate 
any missing pages,  the page integration step itself -- if left to the 
proofing pool -- may take several additional days of back and forth with 
reviewers until it is addressed and solved.
As you can imagine,  that is not effective use of anyone's time.

If you would like to receive some tips on how to perform a page integrity 
check quickly and effectively,  please let me know.  I will be happy to 
oblige,  either on the list or privately.

Guido

Just possibly, it would be best to begin by communicating, if possible, 
with
the individual who submitted the book in the first place.
