Short of checking them each by hand in the Paragraph dialog box under the Format menu, the only way I know is to select all the text, then go to the Format menu and the Paragraph dialog box and left justify everything. Then you'd have to reformat anything you didn't want left justified, of course. Maybe someone else will have a superior method. But what I do is left justify everything, and then - depending on how chapter titles are presented in the book, select them and center them or do whatever seems best to format them in a similar manner to how they appear in the book. This method could get more time consuming for books with more complicated formatting, but for straight fiction - mainly just paragraphs of text - this seems to work pretty well.

I hate to admit that I don't know how to do this, but in Kurzweil how do you assure that the page number is at the left margin.

Jake, a member of Bookshare staff, sent the relevant section of the volunteer manual stating that blank lines around page numbers are preferred.Peace, Mayrie At 12:40 PM 1/16/2008, you wrote:I may be wrong, but I thought that the blank line issue had been worked out: Blank lines around page numbers for the benefit of the html version of the file.As to the position: I tend to just leave them where they are. But some here have given good reasons for putting them at the top.Evan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tracy Carcione" <carcione@xxxxxxxxxx> To: <bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, January 16, 2008 1:18 PM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] best position for page numbers?Before the weekend, a couple people said they would experiment anddetermine the answer as to how best to position page numbers, i.e., at thevery top of the page (or bottom) or with a blank line between the number and the page break. I am very anxious to know the answer, as I'm aboutdone validating something (unless I have to go back through and add blanklines.) Thanks.
