Only sometimes. The printed page numbers don't scan.

Oh no, Valerie, we don't mean that.  We can see blank lines by using the arrow 
keys.  It is very hard to explain.  It could be that I shouldn't pay any 
attention to Word's page count, and just go by the page numbers in the scan, 
even if pages are added in Word.

Are you saying when a person reads with a Braille Display there is now way to 
see a blank line?
