Dear Booksharian Friends,

To be safe, before I upload one of the darkest, misery filled mysteries I've
ever read, a British one that is touted to be funny and capable of shocking
the unshockable, I have a question.3 sections of text in the cover
information
have white print on black background. After Exploring the menus, and
experimenting, I haven't been able to tell Microsoft Word 2003 with Jaws how
to convert these sections to match the rest of the book. It sounds fine, so
does it matter? Do you think the tools wwill be confused?

My hunch is that the answer to this question is no, and that I can upload
the RTF file as it is, a superior scan carefully validated, but I'd rather
ask than risk snagging this book on a technicality.

In case you are interested in reading it, The book is The Dying of the Light
by Michael Dibdin, author of the Aurelio Zen mysteries. It's cleverly
conceived and written so you may feel as if you were seeing it as a play.
It's only 150 pages long. The first half creeped me out and then I thought I
deserved to kick myself for being amused by the last half. The plot twists
are definitely inventive in this bizarre, take on a British country mansion
who done it. Be warned, it isn't cozy!

Thanks for your suggestions.

Always with love,

Lissi

Hi Lissi,

Try to select the text then go to the format menu (alt+o), then choose
font.  Choose the font color and background color buttons and use the
arrow keys to select the colors you want.  This should allow you to
change the colors of the sections in question.  I would suspect that
colors won't matter ultimately.  But, I would recommend that you try
to change the colors to match the rest of the text as much as you can.
