Why not make subheadings for each of the sequence and create page numbers
after every 5 minutes? Generally one hour of recording contains any where
between 15 to 25 pages. Thus the page division would be some where near near
print pages.

Thanks
Dipendra

Dear Sandeep,

Thank you very much for your pieces of advice. I have followed them, and
have created two relatively long NCC only books. With regard to the division
of each DTB, I have decided to divide each major sequence of
the story into pages.     


Best regards,

Julius
