If you're editing a text file in word or word pad, you should be able to insert page breaks by copying one and pasting it in as I mentioned in the previous message. Cindy, I bet even though the page breaks don't show up for you, are hidden for some reason in .txt files, that they are in fact there after you've edited the files still. Could be wrong though. This is getting confusing. How do you all at bookshare determine which .txt files contain page breaks? Here the screen reader indicates them if I use the arrow keys as I said, and if I were to load a .txt file in say Open Book without page breaks, it would take forever, whereas it loads right in when it contains page breaks.
