Technically, I suppose Monica is right that you could just leave them split. It is true that if sighted people can cope with them, then we certainly should be able to. But I don't leave them split. In my experience, I don't recall seeing words split between pages a great many times, just an occasional occurrence here and there. It sounds as though your book may be unusual in that respect.

I wasn't sure. I figured that some user had come up with a more efficient way o doing this. Either way, I will do it, as I believe in producing excellent books for users to read. It's just taking longer, that's all.

I don't see how you could automate that process. How could you use a search and replace since you have no way of knowing what the split words will be, and they are likely to be different in each case. A spell checker would certainly spot the split words, but I doubt it would be able to make suggestions, since they are incomplete words. I don't see any alternative to doing it manually.

Hello,
I am currently validating a long book where words are split over two pages. Is there a way to make the words onto one page without going through and changing every one of them individually? This is a 400-page book, and while I'm reading it through, it takes too long to stop after every page to combine a word that was split onto different pages. 

Thanks
Nimer J
