Well here's one.  I validated Mike Pietruk's submission of "Those Christmas
Angels" last weekend, an RTF file.  I am reading it now, you know, word for
word?  Well, MS Word seems to have eaten the page numbers.  The breaks are
still there <knock on wood> and all the words are there.  But what do you
suppose happened to the page numbers?  Now this copy I am reading had to
catch a bug from Bookshare when it was uploading/ inspecting/copying, or MS
word  is doing this.  So if you save your work, well. . .

That is indeed annoying. I thought leaving 4 line
spaces before writing Chapter whatever would work. Do
you have any idea what it is you might have done
differently  with the ones that are still present in
the Daisy file?  Maybe we could put a line, varying
how we say it, informing people that" a new chapter
begins here," Maybe sometimes with an "A," or without
it, and then Chapter whatever, and so on.  What makes
me think of that is that in a  couple of the books  I
validated, including Lost Love Found, somtimes the new
chapter begins on a new page and sometimes it begins
in the middle of a page.
