Does that remove bolding or italics?

  Hi Lisa,

   

  To make a book all normal style just select all with control a and then press 
control shift n. 

   

  Hope that helps.

   

  Best,

  Allison

  It is out of the shadows.

  The ISBN number is 9780618927227

  If someone could help me create anchors, I would really appreciate it.

  I have what page each chapter should start from the Table of Contents, but 
that is it.

  In addition, how do I make the book all normal style?  It says heading level 
3, heading level 1, all these headings.  I have never achieved mastery of the 
styles.  Or will the bookshare conversion tool make it all normal style?

   

  Thanks,

  Lisa

  Lisa, do you know if the printed version of the book had page numbers?  If it 
did, and you have the book title, and ISBN,  one of us sighted volunteers might 
be able to get a peek at an image of some of the printed pages in Amazon or 
Google books and get their page numbers.  Once you have a bunch of the correct 
page numbers, from throughout the book, it makes it a lot easier to fill in 
missing page numbers because you sort of have what I'd call "anchors" for the 
correct page numbering.  Does that make sense?  it's something I've done myself 
with several books I proofread that were missing most or all of their page 
numbers.

    That works.

    However, there are chapters, which will give me a guide to where the page 
numbers should be.  So if I mess up, I mess up the whole book.

    If there are no page numbers in the print version then add them yourself. A 
big advantage to this is that you can start numbering them on page one and not 
be bothered with Roman numerals for preliminary pages. I always have disliked 
page one starting any number of pages into the book.

      Hi Friends,

       

      I recently checked out a very challenging book.  I already turned the 
section breaks to page breaks, took out a url, took out a field, and did some 
other formatting.  However, the book has no page numbers.  Should I release it 
for a sighted proofer?  Or can I simply put a page number on each page, and 
hope I get it right?

      I like the book, so I'd rather not release it.  However, if it would be 
better done by a sighted proofer, I want it to be done properly.

      Any advice would be great.

       

      Thanks,

      Lisa
