-NNELS will retain print pagination if requested by the user. Otherwise, print pagination is not retained.+NNELS will retain print pagination only if the page numbers exist in the original ebook
  
-In many books, page numbering does not matter. Most books sold in EPUB format (especially fiction) do not have specific pagination and so will show as a different number of pages depending on the amount of text that fits on a device’s screen. Some accessible format producers (including NNELS) will remove page numbers from the table of contents to not confuse a user in these cases. Some texts are for academic study, in which case, page numbers matter so that the reader can properly reference or cite the material. 
-=====How to keep the print pagination===== 
-If requested by the user, NNELS will retain print pagination in the digital book. 
  
-Follow the pagination of the original book. +=====How to keep print pagination=====
-      * You can only use Microsoft Word to edit. LibreOffice does not have the sectioning functionality that is required for correct pagination+
-      * Edit the book ensuring the page numbers in your document are consistent with those in the original text.  +
-      * Insert page numbers in the header to match those in the Table of Contents.  +
-      * You will have to do a spot-check when the book is complete to ensure the page numbers match the index.  +
-      * You can modify the Normal and Heading styles to make everything fit. +
-      * Use manual page breaks (''Ctrl''/''Cmd''+''enter'') to split pages where necessary, and section breaks to split new sections. +
  
-====Adding page numbers==== +Follow the pagination of the original book by inserting page numbers at the appropriate points in the text.
-  * Use the page numbering tool (''Insert'' > ''Page number'') as opposed to manually typing page numbers. +
-  * Add page numbers in the header, typically centered. +
-  * Do not start a new page with a blank line. +
-  * Do not start a new page with an image.+
  
-Often books will have different page numbering for the front matter (i.e. roman  numbers), body matter (arabic numbersand rear matter. To retain the original page numbering, you must use the section breaks tool.+To enter a page number into MS Word: 
 +  * Match up the location of the page number in the original ebook (EPUB or PDFto the Word DOC 
 +  * Create a new line (paragraph break) 
 +  * Insert the phrase ''PRINT PAGE #'' and style as ''Normal'' 
 +  * If there is a blank page insert the phrase ''PRINT PAGE # - Blank Page''
  
-====Using section breaks==== 
-In order for parts of the document to have different formatting in the front and body sections, it must be divided into sections. You need to insert section breaks where the page numbering changes, i.e. at the end of the front matter, which uses lower case roman numerals. For numbers, use the same numbering system used in the print material: numeric, roman numerals, or letter-number combination.
