Hi Alison, Open the individual files in your book file, then right-click each file in succession and choose Pagination. Try applying "Read from File" in the 1st page Side drop-down. If that fails, change it to Next Available. If that doesn't work, try deleting extra pages with Special > Delete Pages. Update the book and see if it sticks. -- B a r u c h B r o d e r s e n T e c h n i t e x t D o c u m e n t a t i o n 8 7 7 7 2 1 6 9 8 8
