I meant page numbers, smile.
I see my mistake this morning.
It does keep page breaks, but on several of the books I am currently
scanning the page numbers are not coming out.

Dog ownership is like a rainbow.
Puppies are the joy at one end.
Old dogs are the treasure at the other.

Hi Shelley,
In older versions of K1000, it may have missed a page break here and there
if you had scanned two pages but only one of them had text, or the OCR
engine thought the two pages were two columns. You can reference the release
notes for exact details on the upgrade.
All that said, if you're missing significant numbers of page breaks, are you
sure the BrailleNote isn't at fault? Either application could be the
culpret, although I cannot speak for how accurate the BrailleNote is, having
never used one.
