When I'm validating, I delete blank pages before the
page numbering starts. If there's a blank page before
the first chapter that counts as page 2, for example.
I would leave that in with the page number.

I didn't reply to the question about deleting blank
pages because I don't have Kurzweill, but I don't know
of any way with word to do it other than as one comes
across them. I've validated several books that have
had a lot of blank pages and they were caused by some
glitch in K, but that was a while ago. I think they
were books Shelley had scanned and she found out from
the Kurzweill company what caused it and the problem
was solved.--I think....
