Will some one explain to me how PLAYLAND has almost one-hundred pages less of 
text in brf format than did my rtf submission, which contained exactly the 
number of  pages of the original book?

  Kellie,

  Thanks.  Yes, the numbers aren't removed they don't appear to the reader just 
like the DAISY numbers.  Thanks for all your help, kellie.

  Hi Prat and all,
  I'm looking at the braille page numbering issue, and one thing I've 
discovered is that Kurzweil doesn't actually remove these numbers as I thought. 
It's just that they don't appear at the tops of the Kurzweil pages, and this is 
because Bookshare's brf files contain no page breaks. The reason for this is so 
that people can emboss the books if they want to. So at least in Isabella, the 
numbers are sprinkled through the text when you read with Kurzweil. Yea; I will 
be grateful for this next time I have to write a paper with citations.
