Hi Rosie, This is exactly the right place to ask questions like yours. The communication that's not permitted is sending books or large chunks of books back and forth to each other. You can tell or ask anything about any book you're scanning or validating, you just can't send the book to anyone. As for your book, is it possible that the number skips between chapters or sections? Are there page breaks and no numbers or are there no page breaks either? Kellie
