Hi Mary, You should always disable "split long pages." If you don't do this, when you are proofreading rtf files many, many extraneous pages that are blank and unnecessary page breaks will be added to the book. Always leave "split long pages" disabled.

Yes, I was merging the pages correctly to get rid of the breaks, but they came back every time. Disabling split pages did the trick though, and I just now got my book accepted. I assume that leaving that disabled setting is the way to go, or is it better to enable that setting until I run into a problem? Thanks to both of you for your response.
