Let me be sure I understand. Did you actually find a page numbered 16 and then determine that it was the same as your page numbered 16? I was able to use ontents to find a page in your book, and from there on I could find pages, but not because they were numbered. The two are very different processes, especially because many of the books in the collection don't have the best of all possible contents pages.c ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tracy Carcione" <carcione@xxxxxxxxxx>

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Page numbers: the experiment


I took a book I recently validated, The Inimitable Jeeves.  I unpacked the
brf, and chose a couple page numbers at random to compare to the RTF
version, which I still have.  They matched up exactly.  Page 16 matched
with page 16 in both files, as did the others I chose.
I then unpacked the html of the same book, and did the same compare, with
the same results.  That's using Internet Explorer to read the html.

Based on my experiment, I feel reasonably confident that my method works
well--if the page number is at the top, put it at the very top, with a
blank line after it.

If others would do similar experiments with, say, Daisy reader or K1000,
we could perhaps get to the truth of what's working and what's not.
