Hi Lori,
I had this exact same thing happen with some of the MSU books I was
submitting.I'm not sure what causes some books to do that and not others.
If someone knew then I'd be thrilled to hear it. I'd just suggest
downloading the book again and trying the conversion again. If it still
does the same thing, then just upload the book with its section breaks and
not page breaks. As far as I know that's okay with Bookshare as I submitted
some MSU books this way. It's not ideal, but it can work.
HTH,
Allison

Hi Ann,
The replacement that Lori used is fine. It just replaces the
section breaks with page breaks. The replacement that you mention will
insert blank lines before and after each page break along with the page
break. In Lori's situation this would have left her original page breaks
without blank lines surrounding them. She would not be best served with
your method. Hers is better. Once the section breaks had been replaced
with page breaks then she could go back and do the replacement to surround
page breaks with blank lines and cover all of them at once, instead of
only half of them, as your suggestion would have achieved.
And none of this discussion is helpful to Lori in determining why her file
now contains one letter on each line.
Sorry Lori, I don't have clue one about that. Good Luck!
Peace,
Mayrie

Hi all,
Hmmm, that's when the old programmer's trick works. If you're going to
modify a file, any file, and you aren't sure what will happen to the file
once it is modified, the best thing to do is to make a copy of the file so
you have the original. That way, if something weird happens to your file,
as happened just now, you will still have your original file from which to
work.
I believe that you wanted to replace ^b with ^p^m^p.
I haven't tried this yet, but may soon. I think if I do, I'm going to
copy my rtf file to one with a different name, do my test and then see.
