Hi Bob and Everyone,
Okay, I started this, and I'm going to finish it. This is getting
ridiculous. I was the one being annoyed and now I'm just more bugged. Too
much conflicting information. Here's what I propose. Everyone, please,
help me out here? I am going to go download the last five books I've either
submitted or proofread. I'm going to go check if the chapter headings are
present. I'm going to look at the most recent of Laura Ann's proofreads, as
she inserts no text to protect chapter headings. Laura Ann, I'm not
criticizing at all. I'm actually brilliantly thankful that I have you as a
comparison. Thank you for being my subject here. I really am not
chastizing you, just using you as a comparison. If her chapter headings are
present, then the new stripper is as it is advertised. If not, something
needs to change. If chapter headings are present in Laura Ann's books, then
I eat my words, and I apologize most sincerely and grovelingly to everyone
for having started this at all.
Would anyone else be willing to look at their last five proofreads,
preferably only books added to the collection after the launch of the new
web site, and tell us what is the status of their chapter headings, and what
they did or did not do to protect them?
This seems like the only way to know what is actually happening.
Only each proofreader knows what she did to any given book during
proofreading. We can put this to rest if we will all go look at our most
recent five proofreads. Please? Help me put this absolutely annoying issue
to bed!
Mayrie

Ah, there's the rub.
Mayrie says move 'em, Monica says "no need to". They are both respected
gurus on this list and I'm just too lazy to move page numbers if it isn't
necessary. Plus, it seems like a breach of the unspoken rule that says don't
change a book if you don't have to.
Bob (is it nap time yet?)

Hi, Susan.
I was waiting for Mayrie to answer you. Alas... Sleep tight,
Mayrie.
I think that's another reason I was taught to put the page numbers
at the top. I think.
Without the page numbers, surely your Chapter headings are doomed.

Hi Bob or Anyone Who Can Answer This,
If we don't move that page number to the top of a page which
begins a new chapter, how will the chapter title be protected?
