OK,  that is excellent if it is the case.  But I submitted a book 
including synopsis.  Then did my own publishing.  At the 2nd upload,  the 
synopsis were lost,  and so were the categories assigment.  There may be 
more than meets the eye.

Guido:
 
I don't think you are correct here. I'm not sure I understand your 
assessment of the issue; however, the only time that a validator's 
synopsis changes will be lost, as far as i know, are in the cases of 
replacement books that Pam describes.

When that happened to me for the first time, I figured it was because
I was replacing a book and the original did not have a synopsis. Guess
that wasn't the case then.
