Hi List: One of my books was accepted today. I downloaded the book to find out if the chapter headings were stripped. I had skipped a couple of blank lines before each chapter number. Sure enough, all chapter headings are gone as well as other important headings. Apparently the trick of skipping a couple lines before each chapter heading is not working any more, if it ever did. Does the automatic stripper always have to be applied? Personally I always strip headers of books that I submit or validate. Another book that I validated all the numbers were stripped. The page numbers are important for this particular book because it's a choose your own adventure which tells you to turn to certain pages at different points in the story. I find it very annoying that even the chapter headings are stripped. I can understand the titles being stripped. In my humble opinion, I rather have the page numbers be left in. It gives me an idea how far I am into the book. But at least the chapter headings should definitely be preserved. Any suggestions on how to preserve the chapter headings? ***** Grace MSN: gcpires@xxxxxxxxxxx
