Well, I suppose you could move the page numbers to the top on the pages where a chapter begins. It wouldn't hurt to move them all except that you would feel like you were assigning yourself make-work. My point is that placing them at the top on the pages where chapters begin is a way to ensure that the headings are protected. It is a cautionary measure. I don't actually know that it is necessary at all. If we can have someone who knows the Bookshare tools thoroughly and intimately comment then my own comments can be rendered moot.

Hi Roger:
I also do the same. However, the issue is that in the dragonlance books all 
the page numbers aare at the bottom.
So what to do in that case.

I always put a blank space at the top of the page and then the page number, 
then another blank space and then the chapter heading. That is I treat it
just like any other page. Supposedly, the Bookshare tools will move page
numbers from the bottom of the page to the top, but I don't know how well
this works, so when most page numbers appear at the top of the page but at
the bottom on the first page of a chapter I feel more comfortable moving it 
to the top myself.

Hi Everyone:

I was reviewing the proof reading manual and it says that it's not
necessary
to protect chapter headings with page numbers? Is this correct? Just want
to
be clear.
In the past I put astarecks if the page number was at the bottom.

Thanks.

Thinking back, I believe you are right Mike. And your solution is the
best.

If you will send me the name of a book you've done this with, I'll check
it
out and let you know the results.

Bob

Some time ago, when the use of font size for indicating navigation points 
was started, I asked a similar question.  What happens when you change
the
font for two lines of text with no blank lines between them? In my case, 
the chapter title was two lines long.  The answer I got was that if two
lines without blank lines between them have the same font then bold and
change the font size to say 16 for both lines, the bookshare software
will



make that into one navigation point. So, if you had a line with "Chapter
1" and after it a line with "First chapter title" and you bold and raise
the font size to 16, the reader should be able to navigate by a line that says "Chapter 1 First chapter title." So, that is what I have been doing. 
Unfortunately, I am not a member, so I cant' check if that's how my
submissions actually turn out.

    Hi Gang,

    I have a question about the chapter and chapter names on the book
    I'm working on right now.For each chapter, there is a line such as
    "Chapter one," and then 2 lines later there is a chapter name such
    as "Loving The Living God."Is this second line considered a
    chapter subheading or is it part of the chapter heading?I'm
    confused as to whether it should be in 14 or 16 point.Thanks!
