Page Numbers

NNELS will retain print pagination if requested by the user (usually if the book is to be used in an educational environment). Otherwise, print pagination is not retained.

No page numbers

NNELS will not retain print pagination, unless the user requests otherwise.

We do the following:

  • Remove all page breaks and section breaks from the e-text.
  • If there is a Table of Contents, remove all page numbers from it.

How to keep print pagination

If requested by the user, NNELS will retain print pagination in the digital book.

We can follow the pagination of the original book by inserting page breaks at the appropriate points in the text.

  • Insert page numbers in the header to match those in the Table of Contents.
  • Use manual page breaks (Ctrl/Cmd+enter) to split pages where necessary, and section breaks to split new sections (see below).
  • You can modify the styles to make everything fit on to a page.
  • You will have to do a spot-check when the book is complete to ensure the page numbers match the index.

Adding page numbers

Match up the location of the page numbers in the original ebook (EPUB or PDF) and then manually insert PRINT PAGE # on its own line.

For example:

Section of text (paragraph break) PRINT PAGE 1 (paragraph break) Section of text (paragraph break)

If you have any questions, please post them in the Production Q&A
