moving boxes to a different page and accounting for page numbers

[Susan Baker]

Hello! I am transcribing a textbook and need some direction.

On page 279, midway down the page (with a new topic following it) is where it discusses the topic of boxed materials that starts on page 280 and goes to halfway through page 282.  On page 279, where I want to put the box, I plan to put a TN stating the passage is moved from page 280, and text continues on page 282. Then I want to put the boxed materials, and then at the conclusion, I plan to put a TN stating that text is continued from page 279. My question is, how exactly do I account for the page numbering of 280, 281, and 282? Will it be that the page numbering actually goes out of sequence?  Thank you for clarifying this for me.

Hello Susan,

Thank you for question.

Since you are including a TN as part of moving the boxed material, your page numbering will stay in sequential order.   I wrote it out below.

p. 179

Text

If you feel you need a TN explaining where text restarts. (However if a new topic is starting probably do not need a TN)

TN Text continues on p. (continuation letter)179.  (only if deemed needed)

TN Box moved from p. 280

Start box

p. 179 continues with (continuation letter)179

End box

The rest of the text from pg.179

pg 280

TN Box moved to p. (continuation letter)179

p. 281-282
