[Athen] Abbyy 10

[Heidi Scher]

Jon,


>The retention of styles is perhaps the most important improvement in terms

of our DAISY production. However, the new version is not all improvements. I
have some concerns with the way the new ADART II layout system is treating
page numbers as header or footer text boxes.  Another strange problem is
that the editor seems to ignore re-ordered areas in formatted text mode now.
(making it more difficult to move page numbers, and retain styles at the
same time.)<

So how do you get around the re-ordering issue?  We've just now upgraded to
10 and have already run into this problem.

Heidi
