Ah, thank you for the clarification. I wasn't aware of that. I'll still a little puzzled, though, because nearly every book I buy from Amazon (and there are a lot) opens where I'd expect it to - ie after all the front matter. Presumably, therefore, something is setting that appropriately. I don't recall ever having bought a book that opens at the "wrong" place (by which I mean somewhere obviously not where anyone would reasonably start reading a book).
