[bksvol-discuss] Re: simple questions

Hi there!

Your representation of the page numbers and the way to handle asterisks is
perfect!  Surrounding both with blank lines works beautifully!

Thanks for being so conscientious!

I hope you're having fun!

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] simple questions

I am a new proofreader.  I have 2 questions:

1.  For the page number, it is ok for me to begin each new page with:
       line space
       page number
       line space
       book text

2. The author uses "***" in the middle of the page to indicate a break
between locations in the book.  Should I use the "***"?
 If yes, should I use it at the beginning of the line?  Should I surround it
by line spaces like the author?

EXAMPLES:  from the text
   
   book text
  line space
        ***    
    line space
   book text

EXAMPLE from proofreader:
OPTION 1:

book text
line space
***
line space
book text

OPTION 2: 
book text
***
book text

Thanks for your advice
