Yes, if there is a blank line between the page number and the text the converter will delete it. As I understand it, though, we are supposed to place that blank line there anyway because it helps the converter to find the page number. I am not really sure what that means though. I don't know if that means that the converter will treat the page number like a part of the text or that it will delete it or what. I just know that we were instructed to add that blank line.

after the last line of text before the page break and after the page
break before the next page number; then I hit return after the page
number and  put the first line of text right below the page number.
If there is a blank line between page number and text on the page
won't the converter delete it?I guess I won't go back and change the
books I'm in the midst of proofing until we hear from Madeleine. I'll
write and ask her to read the posts and weigh in on the issue.

A blank line consists of two hard returns, not just one. So to create a
blank line you need to have two consecutive hard returns.

But wait, is that an additional blank line,I mean, I hit return after
the page number which does create a space before the text; should I
hit return again and create another blank line? (I'm starting to go
back and change what I've done so far in one of the books I'm working
on. The other book I'm just starting to proof. So please rely ASAP.

Yup, blank line between page break and page number, and between page
number
and text is the method I've always used and was what I was told when I
started back in2006.

If that's correct I'd better start putting a blank line between page
number and text in the books I'm proofing now.

Christine is correct, it is a blank line before and after each page
number.
And yes, it can be time consuming, but it's the best way to ensure that
page
breaks are your in the digital version.

I am always so grateful for every one who takes the time to ask
questions
and make sure we have the highest quality books possible in the
collection.

Happy Saint Patrick's Day everyone!

Hi.
I thought it was only one blank line before and after each page number.

Hi people,

I have heard that we are supposed to have two blank lines after each
page
number.  If this is the case, is there a quick way to do this?  Or must
it
be done manually, as I am currently doing?

Thanks
Lisa
