Bookshare recognizes the section breaks.

So, maybe Jim, you need to put in the comments, "Has section breaks, 
Bookshare recognizes these as page breaks, file has page breaks".

Hi Judy:
I recommend not attempting to change section breaks into page breaks. When 
I've tried I also have problems. The section breaks for  pages is how my 
FineReader Pro outputs a book. Hopefully, when I upgrade to FineReader 9 
this will resolve the issue.
Jim

Hi Jim,

I've tried validating your books but the minute I touch any of the 
formatting
(for example, changing a section break to a page break) the rest of the book
becomes wonky for me to try and work with.  Word re-arranges the entire 
text,
which seems to be in a columnar format, with many specific margin settings, 
and
I end up with things like pages that are one character wide.

I tried contacting you privately about this last week, in terms of any
suggestions on what I should do - including asking whether we are supposed 
to
turn section breaks into page breaks, but never heard back. smile.  I assume 
the
internet gremlins ate my email, but I haven't had time to try and contact 
you
again.  smile.

So - I'd validate your books, as several of them are ones I would like to 
read,
but I don't know how to do so without messing them up.  The only thing I can
validate on them is scanno errors in spelling.
