If you can figure out the offset between the first page in the document, and actual page '1', you should be able to goto-page and find the right page, or almost the right page, by adding the offset to the page number. Not a perfect world, but the future is . . . so bright! Or at least. . . we hope it will be. . . Guido Guido D. Corona IBM Accessibility Center, Austin Tx.

But I do understand that I cannot type in the string 125 and find that page number? So, looking at an OReilly computer book's table of contents and find a section I want means not entering the page number, but the phrase I want to find. ----- Original Message ----- From: Guido Corona To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, June 14, 2004 11:14 AM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: chapter headings No, you can go to page XXX, using the go to page facility in Victor soft. You may find though that with that program logical pages are offset sometimes from physical pages. If you use Kurzweil instead, you can set user page numbrs in a book to rematch physical pages: you will find this in the Edit menu. In kurzweil the 'goto page' dialogue is in the 'read' menu.

Also, why are these being stripped? ----- Original Message ----- From: Guido Corona To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, June 13, 2004 3:20 PM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: chapter headings Yes Cindy, page numbers are stripped by the automated tool. Nevertheless, we should ensure that we preserve them in our submissions and approved copies, because they are preserved in an archival copy of our submissions, and may be utilized in future enhancements of the bookshare system. Furthermore, if submitting/scanning volunteers nuke those page numbers, they will make it impossible for reviewers to perform book integrity checks. Guido Guido D.

We were told at one point that the automated stripper would only delete the lines that kept being the same and that if there were a page number (which we were told to put at the top of the page, then skip a line and then put the text) that differed each page then the headings wouldn't be stripped. If they're being stripped anyway, are the page numbers being stripped, too? I agree with the person who said that she manually deletes, as she validates, the chapter and book title headings that are on the pages subsequent to the first page of the chapter.
