Hi Judy and Cindy!

When the book I'm proofreading has the page numbers at the bottom, I always move the number to the top when the page has a new chapter or similar thing such as preface, acknoledgments, prologue, bibliography, index, etc. at the top. Whether that is actually necessary or not, I feel like I'm doing the right thing by doing it. At least it gives me peace of mind that the tool won't get confused and muck something up.

Thanks for this, Lori; I unsuccessfully tried to find it; now I've added to my saved instructions; but it doesn't say what to do, if the page number is at the bottom, to protect the first line of text on the next page from being deleted. Another question to which I couldn't find the answer: it says page numbers don't have to be any particular font size, but do they have to be all in the same font? If my book has some numbers bold and some not bold do I have to change them to be all the same? Do those of you who listen to books hear bold more loudly?
