In a publisher's submission guidelines they asked for a page break at the end of each chapter. This was the first time I'd encountered this. I complied and went through my whole manuscript inserting page breaks before sending the first three chapters to them. I now have a complete manuscript with page breaks if they want to read the rest. However, I'm wondering if this is something that all publishers require in a manuscript? I checked my copy of "Formatting & Submitting Your Manuscript" (Writer's Digest Books), but couldn't find anything about page breaks in it. I also did a search online and only came up with an editing service that mentioned this was the correct way to format a manuscript.
I'd be most grateful for any advice! Thanks.
