Pam, I see the origin of the misunderstanding. This discussion is about missing pages. The problem was that as page numbers were badly corrupted in the critical section of the book, it was impossible to determine exactly where the problem was. Guido Guido D.

But the vast majority of us will not, and have been told not to reject books due to lack of page numbers or inaccurate page numbers. I thought it said that books in the daisy format were repaginated anyway. Anyway, you're doing fine I'm sure. Just keep doing what you're doing. Pam Original message: >I'm a fairly new validator.
