Hi All,
Sandi and I have been working on an omnibus that contains three separate
books in one printed volume. The printed book is unusual in that it
retained the original page numbering for each of the three novels it
contains. The page numbering goes from page 1 to page 174 for the first
book. Then, instead of continuing on sequentially with the page
numbering at the start of the second book in the omnibus, the page
numbering starts over from page 1, and then this pattern repeats for
book three. We were concerned that the Bookshare conversion tools
wouldn't correctly recognize page numbering beyond the first book
because of this, and would instead treat the second and third sets of
page numbers as duplicates.
Bookshare staff weren't sure what would happen either. So we submitted
the book and crossed our fingers.
I'm happy to report that the book did convert correctly, retaining all
the page numbering and page breaks. Yay!
So this is a new piece of information for all us scanners and
proofreaders. In the rare case where a book contains page numbering
that repeats itself sequentially, like in this book, the conversion tool
will correctly find and maintain all page numbers and page breaks.
