Hi Don,
OpenOffice uses this code to force a page break in a document, instead of using
the code for a hard page break.
OpenOffice will always create problems with hard page breaks in an rtf document
by using the "page break before paragraph" code.
There is no way to fix or change this if you use OpenOffice.
OpenOffice programmers have been straightforward about this on their forum.
There is virtually no chance this will ever change. The same is true for
LibreOffice.
It's frustrating. I've used both programs for at least a decade for everything
but files for Bookshare. You just can't use OpenOffice or LibreOffice to create
or edit an RTF file for Bookshare because of the problem with how these
programs mess with hard page breaks.
If you are having trouble with hard page breaks and formatting with the OCR
software you use, which I recall is OpenBook, this list is the place to ask for
help on how to do that with OpenBook. I don't think, from what I've learned
here, that you even need a word processor like OpenOffice to create a high
quality rtf file for Bookshare if you have OpenBook.
In pretty sure there are several blind volunteers on this list who use OpenBook
successfully to create rtf documents that have all of the page breaks and
formatting needed for Bookshare submissions. I'm sure they will be glad to
help. smile.
