Hi, Kellie, I am fairly new to volunteering and was not aware of the resolution of this old issue, so how do i protect the chapter headings in the book I plan to submit? Sorry not to know and I don't remember the issue being in the new manual, but I could have missed it.

Blank lines above chapter headers will not protect them, no matter how many you use. The stripper strips them and ignores them. This is consistent, and has been discussed and verified many times before you joined the list. I'm not clear on why others have forgotten this, but it's a certainty. Kellie
