Sue, are you sure the page numbers were there when you validated the book? I've validated quite a few books where the page numbers were missing or corrupted, along with the headings. I usually do a page-number check after I've validated the book -- I read word for word -- and find sometimes that I've forgotten to put in a missing number or I've put in the same number twice. In the book I just finished, I got so absorbed in the story that at times I forgot to put in page breaks (they weren't there) and had to go back and insert them and the page number. I just kept reading and reading. (smile). Cindy __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - now with 250MB free storage. Learn more. http://info.mail.yahoo.com/mail_250
