Hi Valerie,

I'm pretty sure, given an issue I had recently with a book with strange page
numbering, the conversion tools will barf on books with repeating page
numbers.

Here's what I suggest. I'd renumber all pages in chronological order
regardless of the fact that each story in the book starts again on page 1.
So, you have a book with the typical page numbering sequence.  

I recently dealt with a book that the publisher decided to give page numbers
in reverse order.  The tools can't handle that.  So, I don't think they can
handle multiple pages with the same number, which is what you'd get when a
book has several stories, each beginning on page one.  So, in short, and
finally shutting up, I'd number the pages in the traditional manner,
starting at page 1 and continuing in sequential order until you reach the
end of the book.

Question for the group;

On books that have more than one story and each story starts again at 1, how
does the tool handle that so the Table of Contents is true?  My kids books
like that (more than one story to a book) have no numbers, but it seems all
my teen/adult books like that start each story at page 1.

Thanks!
