Hi,
I'm confused again. I thought there was not supposed to be a blank
line betweenn page number and text. There seems to be several grey
areas about conformity that I wish could be cleared up for us
scanners. It seems like in some areas there is no specific rules as
to how things should be, like blank lines before and or after page
numbers or before and or after chapter headings. When I scan a book
before I send it in for validating I convert it to rtf format, do
rank spelling and keep changing back and forth about blank lines
before and after depending on what the last thing is I have been told.
Do I sound confused? I think a lot of us scanners aren't clear on
some of these issues.
Thanks for putting up with this confused scanner
Bud

Here is a tip for adding blank lines before page numbers. You can add a
blank before and after a page break in MS Word by going to the "find and
replace" box using alt h. Then in the find box type ^m. In the replace box
type ^p^m^p. Then tab until you hear the "replace all" button and press
space or enter. This will put a blank line both before and after a page
break. It won't put a blank line between the page number and the text, one
has to do that by hand. Even so, I've found that the above technique saves
me a little bit of time while validating.
BTW, before anyone claims that I'm brilliant, I got this idea from
Jamie Y at one point. I'm afraid I can't take credit for it. *smile*.
Best,
Allison
