Lol, Bob. I didn't say I didn't move page numbers. (smile) I just said we
need the stripper and that it's been updated to recognize chapter headings
better. I didn't view what I said as contradicting Mayrie. Rather, I was
pointing out that headway has been made on the stripper and was trying to
explain why getting rid of it completely would do more harm than good.
They've tried to program more flexibility into the new stripper and make it
smarter. The engineering team has spent time working on it, and they need to
know if it's still eating chapter headings when it shouldn't. They've tried
to make it more tolerant so that books still look fine even if processed by
proofreaders who don't know about protecting chapters. I think we'll always
have to be aware of the stripper, even if they fix it to be more intuitive.
I downloaded my books to see how they look. I can't say mine are
representative though because I numbered the unnumbered pages and moved page
numbers to the top.

Ah, there's the rub.
Mayrie says move 'em, Monica says "no need to". They are both respected
gurus on this list and I'm just too lazy to move page numbers if it isn't
necessary. Plus, it seems like a breach of the unspoken rule that says don't
change a book if you don't have to.

Hi, Susan.
I was waiting for Mayrie to answer you. Alas... Sleep tight, Mayrie.
I think that's another reason I was taught to put the page numbers at the
top. I think.
Without the page numbers, surely your Chapter headings are doomed.

Hi Bob or Anyone Who Can Answer This,
If we don't move that page number to the top of a page which begins a new
chapter, how will the chapter title be protected?
