Kelly,
This file is a *.doc file and I am using microsoft word to edit it. As far as
seeing where the page breaks needs to go, there are know page numbers to even
hint where to put the breaks. It is just one continuous set of text. On the
first page, it goes from the copyright straight into the text and flows and
flows until the end.
