Hi Ellen and everyone!
I just remembered, after setting this message aside for a while to check on
a book I had submitted, because I remembered that it had just numbers for
chapters as Ellen's book does.
This was towards the beginning of my volunteer days, so I wasn't aware that
I should put the word "Chapter" in front of the number "1", "2", etc.
I downloaded this book I am referring to: "In the Night Season" by
Siegfried Stander and Christiaan Barnard,, because it was the first one I
thought of that named chapters this way, because I suddenly became
concerned about what the tool might have done to the numeric chapter titles
after reading Ellen's question.
Everything looks okay to me. Here is what comes immediately after the
prologue including the first sentence of chapter 1.

The houses on this street were identical, small and square like drawings by
a child
with a passion for order, each with a door set in the center and
equidistant windows
on either side.
I'm pleased with the results, though, since the inclusion of the word
"chapter" making it Chapter 1 seems helpful to anyone, as several people
suggested, I'll remember to include it in the future.

Hi group,
I have a bit of a problem. I'm scanning a book that has chapter numbers,
just digits and no words. Should I put the word Chapter before these
numbers? I remember being told once that numbers left by themselves on a
line get deleted by the final proofing tool. What should I do?
Thanks,
Ellen
