Hi Kathy,
Oh, yes, using MSWord, it is simple to make pages longer so that soft page breaks won't be inserted and mess up page count even more than having to take into consideration preliminary pages already does! And I love using it. Here is what you do. This assumes you are using MSWord. In the file menu, down arrow to "page setup." Hit enter. Press control-tab. This puts you in the paper size dialogue. Here you can choose your paper size by down arrowing and can change it to either legal, which generally is big enough for me, or to custom, whose size you can specify by tabbing through your choices and changing the length and width (in inches) of the page. Once you do that, hit the "ok" button, and you are set. No more soft page breaks to confuse you when trying to determine if all pages of a book are present, and proper page breaks as well! Yaye! I was thrilled to learn this one! I hope it helps you too! 

Peace,
Mayrie

Wow!  That's interesting!  How can you create longer pages?  I didn't know
anybody could do that, even though a computer usually has two or three ways 
to do almost everything, and there is really very little you can't figure
out some way to get around, I'd never even thought about making a page
longer.

Thanks, Rik. That does indeed help. So you prefer the
skipped line, when possible (and it's possible that if
there was too much dialogue I could just lengthen the
page. I used to skip lines and about a third or
halfway through the book I'd run into too much
dialogue and so would go back and change all the pages
to indented paragraphs. That was before I knew one
could create longer pages).
