Hey, Bob!
 
That's sort of what the current book I have is like with the blank pages.
They aren't numbered, or anything, and removing them doesn't mess up the
page numbering...

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Extra pages in a book.


Hello all.
I am validating Logics of Dissentegration PostStructuralist Thought and the
claims of Critical Theory. Not a book I'd like to read from cover to cover.
However, though it is a pretty good scan it has about twice as many pages as
it needs. In toher words, the book ends on (I don't remember the exact
numbers) but, say, about 400 pages, while Kurzweil and word report about 800
pages.
 
It appears that the person who scanned it got two pages for every page
scanned. 
 
Okay, my questions are:
Has anyone seen this sort of thing before?
How can you get two pages for every physical page?
and: does anyone know of a quick and dirty method of going through a
document eliminating every other page break?
 
I have Kurzweil and MsWord 2003 to work with this file.
 
I am going out of my ever loving mind with boredom and am not on page 100
yet.
 
Any ideas would be appreciated before they come take me away to the nut
house.
 
Bob
