The html table of contents has absolutely no references to page numbers.

The only time the word 'page' even appears in the xhtml files is one single entry of <div class="pagebreak-avoid"> and in the CSS file it only appears as a 'page-break-before' associated with h1 headings and a pagebreak-avoid definition.

There is a print version of this book but it only had 102 pages and Apple's complaint includes references to page numbers as high as 159 and 160. All references inside the print version were scrupulously removed before conversion to epub and that was back in 2015. So for the past 7 years, KDP and D2D (including Apple) have distributed this ebook without any problems.

I have examined all the metadata and there is no reference to any print version.

I'm going to have one more go at remaking the toc and then maybe I'll just try sending the original docx file to D2D and let them convert to epub and see if there's any difference.
