[bksvol-discuss] Re: Page Breaks in TXT files

Hi Marissa,

The problem with Word isn't seeing the page breaks, but rather keeping them. If you load a txt file, edit it, and resave it as a txt document, the page breaks will be gone the next time you load the document.

Hi Cindy,

You still won't be able to upload a file that's originally in txt into
rtf, if my memory serves me correctly.

You can edit the txt file in Microsoft Word if you open up the txt file
from the Word application. If you turn on the function that allows you
to see all of the punctuation characters and symbols, you should be able
to see whether or not page breaks have been maintained.

Thanks,
Marissa

Thanks, Marissa. The squares didn't appear in the
books I did before, I'm pretty sure. I think if they
repeated I would have noticed and asked.

I'll try another book now and follow your suggested
method -- but wait. If I download a txt book and
convert to Word and then RTF, which is what I did with
my very first txt validation, will I be able to upload
it as rtf? bookshare wouldn't accept it before except
as a txt document, and then all the page breaks and
italics I'd put in disappeared.

I'll wait to hear from you before I download from the
validation list.

Cindy
