Anne Patkau | 93 comments Manual says #pages includes many after-type verbiage, not previews, so we do count bio page(s)? Please add to manual so I remember?

It depends. If it comes immediately after the book's text (or index, or other counted pages), then it is counted. If the book has the text of the book, then previews for other books, and then the bio, we would stop counting after the text of the book.

Anne Patkau | 93 comments Tricky, does deserve adding to Manual.
Whew. Reading another bio right after text. Next page has "About the Type" font, seen before, have not included, also not specified in Manual.
Timely answer. Ta.

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/22... has a blank page between after text and before bio page, (total 275 pages) so I kept existing 272 pages for text. Yes?
