Hi Mayrie, Sorry. I pushed the wrong button on the spell checker and turned your name into the wrong thing. Jim ---------- Jim Homme, Usability Engineering. 412-544-1810.

This is due to the fact that preliminary pages containing copyright info, the title page, and other preliminary material are often not numbered, or numbered by Roman numerals while the actual text of the book is where page numbering in arabic numerals starts. To account for this, I would find the first page numbered with an arabic numeral, and count back page by page from that to where the page would be numbered 1. At that point, count your number of preliminary pages, those before the page you have numbered 1. This will tell you the amount by which Word's numbering and the actual page numbers differ. You can then insert page numbers after page 1 and thus varify where sections in the table of contents are actually, and make sure that the page numbers in the table of contents scanned correctly. If you want the page numbers to match exactly, I suppose you could cut all preliminary material, that which you have made sure comes before page 1 to another file and save it. Then you will have a file in which Word's page numbers and the page numbers in the book match. You can, from there, varify by using the table of contents the page numbers on which sections or chapters begin. After you have varified and numbered all pages that should have arabic numbering, you can reappend the preliminary material to the top of your book's file. Sorry that wasn't the most eloquent answer. It isn't a quick process, but with care it can be managed. Good luck!

It is a bit of work, but the only way to make sure that the table of contents is correctly formatted and contains accurate information.

I don’t know if they match up or not. Thanks. Jim ---------- Jim Homme, Usability Engineering. 412-544-1810. "A vision without a task is but a dream. A task without a vision is drudgery.
