Thanks, Judy. The main text in Mr. Campion's farthing begins on p. 7,not
p.1., so had numbered the preceding pages with arabic numerals I was told
to use roman numerals before page 1.3 I've now done that, but since the
story began with. 7, I thoughT I could use arabic numbers to that point (I
wonder if I should have put them i brackets)I think I've done that with
other books and they were accepted.
P.S.
Thanks for clearing up my confusion abut tittle page. I do make the tile
everywhere else 20 point bold but thought I'd read something else about
that page. Obviously I was confused smile

Hi Cindy,
I took a peek at the history page on Bookshare for the book it sounds like
you are talking about--Mr. Campion's Farthing? If so, the instructions that
were sent back to you that I just read on the history page say the
following regarding the book page numbering: "The first two pages and the
last four pages need page numbers. Use Roman numerals for the first two
pages prior to page 1."
It seems that the book, from reading that, has two pages unnumbered pages
prior to where the Arabic numeral page numbering starts, with numeral one,
that need to have roman numerals added.
Then, on the book title, the title should be 20 points and bold. The title
page is always that page that has the title, the author and the publisher.
All of the other text on that page should be 12 points and not bold.
I hope that helps. smile.

I'm slightly confused about several things but perhaps one is caused by
my mis-remembering
I recently had a book returned ad was told to put the beginning pages in
roman numerals; because the main text began on p. 7 I'd numbered the
beginning pages in Arabic numbers, up tp p 7.. in the book they are
unnumbered and I did put [blank page[ for p. 6. Should I have used the
roman numerals and simply noted that the text began on p. 7.?
And here's what perhaps I'm mis-remembering. My reject tells me the title
on the title page should be 20 point Bold but that's what I had originally
and then I thought I read in some posts that it shouldn't be-- shouldn't
be; it just should be i 12 point like the rest of the page. I can't find
i n my saved notes anything about the title page
