That's fine. No problem if someone removes pages from the middle of a book as
long as the page numbering is preserved. My problem is when someone deletes
blank pages 8 and 9, so page 7 is immediately followed by page 10. When I look
at the book in the approval queue, the page numbering is messed up, so I return
it for more editing. If you include pages 8 and 9, and put [blank page] on
them, then I'm a happy camper. I'll approve the book.
Thanks for asking me to clarify! Carrie

Carrie;
My impression was that these pages (the picture page and blank page) would NOT
alter current numbering. In other words, it was like this:
p 6 text
picture page
blank page
p 7 text
Kind of like picture inserts.

No please, don't omit unnumbered pages! It throws the page numbering off.
Please keep the blank pages, put a page number on them, and either [blank page]
