Hi Regina,

If you don't make the font on chapter headings larger than the text of the
body of the book, anyone using the daisy book won't be able to jump from
chapter to chapter in the book.  If you tell us what screen reader you're
using, we can give better instructions for how you can do the enlarging, or
see if it has been done already by the scanner of the book.

Happy proofreading!

Mayrie

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
