Thanks a lot, Monica. What is the confidence level? I heard about it but I never did figure out what it was. Thanks a lot, and yes this all does help a lot.

As Jill has said, using 2 page mode will put page breaks where they need to be. Using the optimize scan feature will adjust things like the brightness and resolution for you. That's why it's such a handy feature to use before scanning a whole book. Another thing I do to get good scans is located in the general settings area. I make sure that hyphen correction is turned on, and in the box for the confidence threshhold, I move it from Kurzweil's default setting of 95 up to 98.5. Your settings should be saved after you adjust them. The fast way to do this is to press alt t and then the letter v. Making these adjustments to your default settings will make sure they transfer to new settings files when you make them later on. I hope this helps. I haven't had my coffee yet and am not sure I'm actually awake yet. (smile) "Don't let yesterday use up too much of today!"
