It does answer part of my question, Mayrie.
The other part of my question probably is going to mean that I get better at
using Word or something, in order to get a count of the number of page
breaks, etc.

Hi Caitlyn,
You can find out how many pages a book should have by looking it up
on Barnes and Noble, Amazon, or some other web site that is book oriented by
using the ISBN in the book. If you can't find the book on a web site,
there's always contacting the submitter if you're unsure whether there are
too many or not enough page breaks in a book.
Does that help at all? Did I answer the right question? I have to
say that I've rarely seen a submitted book with too many page breaks. In my
experience, it's much more common for there not to be enough of them. Like
that helps if you're having the opposite problem, right? And I think your
problem, too many page breaks, would be a lot more difficult to solve
without a copy of the book. Just trying to commiserate here.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] More page and page break questions
Ok, this is probably a pretty simple thing, but I'm wondering how we're
supposed to know how many page breaks, etc, a given book should have.. If
we're lucky, the submitter actually tells us how many pages the book should
have(thanks, Shelly R.)!, but otherwise, how do we know?
I just validate, or tried to validate, the hiking merit badge booklet, and
it honestly looked fine to me, but I just got a message from bookshare
support saying that it had 210 page breaks and about a hundred and something
soft page breaks. The book had 79 pages. I use both K1000 and Word(office
xp version) for validating.. I want this to not be a problem in the future,
so what do I do from now on?
Thanks,
Caitlyn
