Hi, I am not sure why, but I am somewhat confused about the ideal finished product when validating. Specifically, I have the following questions. Are we to do all we can to leave page numbers there or do we need to take them out? Ideally, should we make page breaks look like blank line, page break, blank line? Should we follow the tips and instructions to the letter when possible that detail how to remove leading, trailing and extra spaces, tabs, and extra line breaks? I guess it would make me feel better if there was a document or part of one that said something like, if you can, here is a list of the ideal things we would like to have you to do to a book when you validate it and have that list all in one place so it would be easy to check. I would be glad to write that document if someone feeds me the information. Thanks for everyone's patience.
