Hello Julius
No standard rules for this but I would do it as:
Sequence1, sequence 2 and so on. This would not have any effect on the audio
that users listen to.
If you are using Sigtuna, time with in the specific heading is being shown
one line above the atatus line. By monitoring this time you could find out
places where you need to put page numbers.
Thanks
Dipendra

audiobooks to DAISY format
Dear Dipendra,
thank you very much for your advice. In relation to this, I would like to
kindly ask, what can I place on the heading properties for each heading?
Given the fact that I would be making as a heading each first sentence of a
new sequence, should I write in the heading properties the exact sentence?
Or is there a
more proper way to name the headings?
Furthermore, I would like to ask, is there a manner by which an individual
can determine the minutes wherein one phrase is located within the DAISY
book? This is in order for me to be able to indicate the page for every five
minutes as you have suggested.
Many thanks,
Julius
