Hi Christine,
If in fact it doesn't have hard page breaks it should be rejected,
unless you're willing to go through and put them in manually.

Hi all,
I have been reading with interest everyone's comments on this issue.
I tried Jamie's method of replacing page breaks with blank line page
break blank line. I performed a "replace all," and in a book that is
around 150 pages, there were only 21 replacements, and these were
between front matter pages and between pages where one chapter ends
and another begins. There was a discussion a few weeks ago about
hard page breaks versus soft page breaks. I'm not sure I understand
all this yet, but the following is the conclusion I have come to
regarding the book in question: When using Jamie's method of
replacing page breaks with blank line page break blank line, if only
21 replacements are made in a book that is over 150 pages, then the
other 129 or so page breaks must therefore be soft page breaks and
have nothing to do with the actual pagination of the print book.
Since this book does not contain any page numbers, I cannot confirm
this for sure, but I'm fairly certain that this is what's going on.
As far as I understand it, books without hard page breaks (those
that correspond with the actual pagination of the print book) must
be rejected. That all took a lot longer to explain than I thought.
Am I correct, or at least on the right track, with all this, and am
I correct in believing that this book does indeed need to be
rejected because of its lack of hard page breaks? If so, what a long
process to find out that a book needs to be rejected, but, on a
positive note, this newbie validator has definitely learned a lot
from this one little book! Thanks for everyone's help with this,
especially G. Cindy for taking the time to track down the copyright page.
