Did you put the word chapter on the line before the chapter's number? It
should work if there is one return between the word chapter and the number.
You don't want a blank line between them, because that will probably cause
part of it to be removed. If they are on the same line it will definitely
be removed by the stripper.

Dear Cindy,
Either you are also an insomniac or you live on the west coast. I am truly going to sleep, now. I've been inserting the word, chapter, before each spelled out numeral. There were thirty of them. I was so happy to get such quick answers to my questions, that you inspired me to stay with it and finish everything you suggested.
I'm not going to try my first upload when I'm this tired, but I really think the book will be ready to send in the morning. You get some rest, too and thanks for everything.
Always With Love,
Lissi

Dear Lissi.
I hope you had a good night's sleep.
In the second part I just meant that I do what you do with most of the pages--skip one line from the page break and start the text. (smile)

______________________________________________________Dear Cindy,
I understood the first part of your reply. Here I thought I was ready to upload at last, but I'm going back to put the word chapter followed by a blank line above the chapters which are numbers spelled out like TWENTY-EIGHT. I'd rather try and prepare the book correctly now than to discover it's sustained damage in translation because I didn't attempt all of the safeguards all of you have developed.
The last part of the message actually did confuse me, but since I don't think you were giving me directions there, I won't worry about it. Smile - and many thanks!
Always With Love,
A Sleepy Lissi
