Not Misha, but they are the type of breaks created in ABBYY FineReader, a 
software I happen to use.  I try to convert everything before I submit, but I 
am sure maybe one day I will forget.  In word, it would announce section break 
instead of page break with screen reading software, I would guess.

Hope that helps!
