Dear Judy,
I’d only replaced the strike throughs through the 40s. Using your method I was
able to replace both kinds of strike throughs with plain numbers all at once by
checking and unchecking boxes for both. How satisfying to find my file shaping
up so smoothly.
Always with love,
Lissi

Hi Lissi,
For the books I've done like this I treated them as if they were two books in a
row contained inside one cover.
I made the titles of each book 20 points, the chapters 16 points. I kept the
original page numbering for each book so when book one finished book two
started the page numbering all over again.
The only thing you have to do is make sure you manually change the number of
pages field in the metadata to be the combined number of pages for both books.

Dear Booksharian Friends,
I’ve forgotten how to format a book when it is two novels in one paperback. The
second novel starts on the back cover turned upside down with the numbers of
the text beginning from the back toward the middle of the books beginning one
at the back and going up.
About Word, when I was double checking my pagination before checking in a book,
numbers I had to replace because they were coming out bolded, I turned up the
magnification way high and saw that in most cases the numbers had one or maybe
two horizontal lines through them. I tried highlighting them and turning
underline off, but that wasn’t the problem. These thin lines go right through
the numbers and JAWS read them as if they were normal so I didn’t have a clue
there was a problem until that page check where the numbers were giant sized.
I’m just wondering what that is as until Word 2010 I never knew it existed.
Thanks in advance for any of your ideas.
Otherwise I remain motivated and entranced to proofread.
Always with love,
Lissi
