Someone once suggested using the page down key.
When I've finished proofreading a book I first do a spell-check, even
thought I've actually read the book, and then I check to see that all the
pages are there and correctly numbered.
or a while I did this by using "find" and then putting in the numbers
insequentially. This worked well but using the page down works best, I've
found. While checking for page numbers I've found places where I missed
Word's page breaks and corrected that by putting hard breaks. And I found
places where because I got so involved in my reading I forgot to make a
page break or I forgot to put the correct page number (in files where the
scanner had omitted them, or I put the same page number twice

> In order to better ensure that readers

>
>
>
> All text books, educational books,
> non-fiction and best
> sellers submitted to Bookshare are required to have page
> numbers on at least
> 90% of their pages in order to be accepted. Page numbers
> will not be required
> for books that do not have page numbers in the
> original text (this is sometimes
> the case for childrenâ??s books). For books in other
> categories, we will make
> exceptions to this rule on a case by case basis as
> necessary.
>
>
>
> Note: When editing with KES often
> times proofreaders will
> inadvertently strip out page numbers along with headers.
> Please ensure that
> page numbers are left intact.

>
> What if the page numbers in a book
> donâ??t scan?
>
> If page numbers donâ??t scan, the
> first thing to do is try
> adjusting your scanner settings. If this doesnâ??t
> work, where possible please
> number the pages manually. If you are using Microsoft word,
> you can do this by using
> the insert page numbers tool. If you run into trouble or
> are unable to number the
> pages for some reason, please include a note for Bookshare
> administration in
> the comments section regarding this when submitting or
> checking in the book.
