Hi, Jake. Where does it say that in the files where that applies? I've never 
seen that so I'm just curious. Take care.

Hi Evan,
    There in reality is no such thing as a soft or hard page break. Either
there is a page break, or there is not one. What people often term soft
breaks are when the word processor indicates a page change because there is
too much text between page breaks to fit within the constraints of the
printed page. There is no character stored in the file to indicate this
"soft" break, because it depends purely on your program as to whether it
wants to remain within the boundaries of the printed page.

    At the top of some books in the collection, it mentions that the book
was repaginated.
