How does this no needing of blank lines match up with the need to put in blank lines around page breaks and page numbers so that the stripper does not remove said page numbers. If I am confused I can only imagine how new validators feel. (sigh no grin)

Hi Sue, You bring up an important question. Let me clarify what I meant in my earlier post. Page breaks are absolutely required. That has not change. I didn't mean to imply otherwise. What Christine was asking about, or what I believe she was asking about, was whether or not a blank line needed to be included at the beginning and end of every page. These blank lines would be in addition to any page breaks. These blanks are not necessary. In short, the page breaks are required, and the blank lines are not. Hope this helps clear things up.

I thought they were not accepting books that lacked page breaks.

True, the blanks can be helpful, but they are not necessary. I verified this fact with another Bookshare staff member. I'll also note that the volunteer manual sets forth no requirements relating to this issue. Best, Allison Hilliker: Intern, Benetech (Bookshare.org).
