My only suggestion at this point is that everyone keep a presubmission copy of
their books in case this problem is ever fixed.
I can dream, can't I?

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] I learn something new
My most recent experiment in chapter protection has been added to the
collection and i finally got arround to looking at it today. Too bad it
was a failure. I won't mention any of the names of people who insisted
that splitting chapter titles on to two lines without a blank line between
them would protect them. They are wrong. Every chapter in this book had a
title as well as a number. I made very sure that the word chapter and it's
number were on one line, which was always the second actual line on the
page. The chapter title was on the next, or third actual line. The
chapter titles are there, but the word chapter and the number have
completely disappeared.
It seems that creating a fake header imitating the headers on the rest of
the books pages is the only way to protect chapters. Of course a page
number works as well, but it would have been nice if this worked so that a
book with page numbers at the bottoms of pages would not require extra work
and header creation.
Do Comets Dream? is the name of the failure.
A Right to Die came out just fine, because I protected the chapter numbers,
which were actual numbers without the word chapter preceding them, by
putting the page number at the top of the page. I already had tried that
method, though.
