Allison, What you're doing is what I've been doing based on Gerald's advice and his downloading and checking a couple books I validated. I was putting a a word, like part of the book, or the word page, on the top line, but he said that wasn't necessary. For page numbers that are at the bottom of thepage I skip a lnte between the text and the page number and the page number and the page break. Since I can't download books, I don't know if what we're doing works, for sure. A Spanish Lover and The World's Best True Ghost Stories are the last ones I valdiated or submitted with page numbers at the top, and Cloudy Jewel and Adora are the last two I did that had the page numbers at the bottom, in case you want to check to see if the page numbers were retained. If you find out that they were not, I'll go back to writing a word above the top page number and see if that works.
