Hopefully we'll get clarification on this publisher stuff, Lori!

John and Scott,

Here is a perfect example of the difficulty with navigating this online
manual.
When John said that the manual states that if the publisher is not shown on
the first page the book would be rejected, I out of curiosity attempted to
find the reference.  I spent far more than five minutes searching through
links to find that information and finally simply gave up.  There should be
a search box (or however you wish to phrase it) that would enable a user to
find a word in the manual.  I could have searched for {"publisher".  I could
not find what John was referring to, and then I could not easily get back to
the section on what causes a book to be rejected in case the information was
in that section.
John, I was curious to find the reference because I have never shown the
publisher on the first page of a book I have proofread, and I have never had
a book rejected for not doing so.
So if this is a new requirement, I sure want to find it tomorrow, but for
now I'm frustrated and tired and done for the day!  But now you have a real
life example!

Lori C.
