In your opinion, which is more favored in the industry--Numerical chapter numbering or written chapter numbering

Edited to change "page" to "chapter." Duh!

Numerical. By the time you get to page "Two Hundred Seventy Seven" it will look very odd on the top or bottom of the page, and if the manuscript happens to fall on the floor, it will be more difficult to put into order quickly.

Boy, do I feel stupid and embarrassed right now! :e2hammer: I meant "chapters," not page numbering.

Thanks for alerting me to my goof. No wonder I didn't get any responses! :)
