I, too, strip my headers before submitting or uploading -- but what you say about the chapter headings worries me. Is this a new problem? I've been putting the page number on the first line, then skipping a couple of lines before the Chapter heading, be it Chapter and a number or an actual title. I hope they haven't been stripped. And everyone wants page numbers (if you can't read the book at one sitting, even when you're reading to children, how do you know where you left off? Of what if they want you to go back to a particular page? I do hope what you found, Dilsia, was an aberration. Maybe Jesse can clear it up for us (and publish another list of books being worked on or awaiting approval.)

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.
