I've just finished a book that stuffed 13 pages of pictures in the middle of the book (almost literally). In order to get the page numbers to line up, I had to move them at the end of the book.

Thanks, bob. The first book I'm working on has them on numbered pages with other text, so I'll put them where they appear.

If the pages have page numbers then place them where they are in the text. But, some books put pictures somewhere in the book without numbering those pages, and that messes up the page numbering. In that case, put the descriptions at the end of the book.

Is there a preference for where these should be placed? I've seen some at the end of the text, and others as they appear in the text.
Thanks,

Melissa
