Hi, Lori,

Glad to meet you on this list, and it sounds like you have been busy.

I can't help with your first question, but in regards to page numbers, it is my 
understanding that it is best to remove brackets or other decorations from 
around page numbers.

Since there are now two Lori's on the list with same spelling, I will try to 
remember to sign my posts "Cat-lover Lori" which should definitely distinguish 
between the two of us!

  Hello all,

  I've been subbed for a day or so and I'm enjoying all of the posts and the 
company of other Bookshare enthusiasts.

  Right now, my resources are limited, so my contributions are just through 
validating. I've validated at least four books and I'm currently working on a 
couple of others.  

  I've come across two things that I'm not sure what to do with. One book has 
significantly more page breaks than page numbers it seems and I'm noticing that 
if I read continuously with JAWS or Window-Eyes the text appears to be fine. 
However, if I am arrowing down, I'll have a paragraph or page that is fine, but 
then it'll switch and I'll only have one character per line. Has anyone 
encountered this before? The file was downloaded as RTF and that's what I've 
left it in.

  In another book, the page numbers are appearing at the bottom of each page 
and have either letters or brackets around them. What is the standard for page 
numbering and should I clean up the information around the page number?

  Lori
