Bud, I try and put them in as I go, another thing you might want to do is keep track of how manny pages you scan before you get to the first page of the book which could be page 1 or page 6. For example, the book I'm doing had one page more than I started on because the book started on page 7. The previoyus book had 15 pages before it started on page 1. So page was on scan page 16.

Bud, There's no magic way of doing--except possibly hitting page down and then doing it. I should think that would be a little faster than if you were scrolling to the bottom of each page. I read the book and fix page numbers and the line spaces as I go along, as well as fixing other things, so the amount of time I take doesn't bother me. When I finish validating a book I do a final spell check and then, usually, unless the book is humongous, a final page-number check by using page down--which I hadn't noticed on the keyboard until someone here mentioned it. Invariably I find that I've either missed a page number or used the number twice (because I've been so involved in the story that I forgot). smile An alternative for you would be to submit but with a comment that you did check to be sure all the pages were present but you didn't add any line spaces before the number. If the validator chooses to read the book he/she will probably do that. If not , it's possible that some numbers will add themselves to the end of the last line or will be deleted, but as long as the page break is there and the text continues unbroken it's not the end of the world. The time you take to put it in, though, is indeed appreciated by the readers and validator. CindyI just said that I submitted Final Jeopardy by Linda fairstein. It scanned very clean and I did the usual rank spell, delete headersand put a blank line between page number and text. That's basically what I said except that it takes me a long time to do the page number thing and wondered if any of the validators had some magic way of doing it. I don't mind doing it but it takes me litterally several hours to do it. Maybe I'm just slow.
