Volunteers,
I usually avoid sending out documents-in-progress to avoid confusion. In
this case since there have been so many requests for .RTF versions of the
manual I am sending a *draft* version of Chapter 3 on Scanning. The
thought with this draft is to try to craft something that can stand
independently of the chapter on proofing. In other words, if the idea
works, having two focussed manuals.
We are open to feedback on content, order, and ease of navigation.

\b Text boxes or call outs
\b0 \'97 Textbooks and reference material often employ layout and style
conventions that make the book more interesting to look at, or to telegraph the
nature of the information presented. Examples of such "value-added" formatting
include color-coding information, or presenting a paragraph in a text box,
separate from the main text flow of a page. Volunteers are strongly encouraged
not to attempt to scan books with significant special formatting.\

\f0\b\fs32 \cf2 2. What You Need to Scan a Book\
\pard\pardeftab709\sa120
\f1\b0\fs24 \cf0 In Bookshare terms, scanning a book is the process of creating
an RTF file that is an accurate copy of the content of a physical book. You
need a scanner and an OCR application \'97 the scanner takes a picture of a
page, the OCR software creates an RTF file that contains the text on the page.\
There are a number of types of scanning devices, from dedicated scanners to
"all-in-one" laser printers. Most scanning devices have built-in OCR software.
There are also stand-alone OCR software applications, for example Abbyy Fine
Reader, that you can use to process images from your scanner to create a text
file.\
You should understand the capabilities of your scanner, and know how to set the
scanning options in the OCR software.\

the end of each line of text, must be removed.\
o Preserve headers and footers.\
o Save as RTF \'97 Bookshare only accepts books in RTF.\
o Create one file per book \'97 Save all book pages to a single file,
rather than each page to a separate file.\
o Set pages per scan \'97 Depending on your scanner software, you may
need to set an option that specifies whether you are scanning one or two pages
at a time.\

you have the ISBN, Bookshare automatically obtains most or all of other
metadata. If you do not have the ISBN, you must manually enter the other book
metadata, most of which should be available in the front matter of the book.
Note however, that if you lack the ISBM, you must supply both a short and a
long synopsis of the book, which you may wish to prepare prior to logging on to
Bookshare to upload the book.\

\b\fs28 \cf0 Title\
\pard\pardeftab709\sa120
\b0\fs24 \cf0 The book title is required, and should be written in the same
language as the body of the book, and be in mixed case, rather that all in
upper or lower case text.\
If the book has a subtitle, append the subtitle to the title, separating title
and subtitle with a colon ( and a space, for example:
\f3 \uc0\u8232
\f4 The Witness: An Inner Sanctum Mystery
\f1 \
If the book is part of a series, append the series name and the sequence number
to the title, in parentheses. Write the sequence number in arabic numerals and
preface the number with a pound sign (#). For example identify the book whose
title is The Hidden, which is the 39th in the Animorphs series like this:\
\pard\pardeftab709\sa120
\f4 \cf0 The Hidden (Animorphs #39)

\b\fs28 \cf0 Author(s)\
\pard\pardeftab709\sa120
\b0\fs24 \cf0 The author or authors are required. Use these conventions for

\pard\pardeftab709\li360\fi-360\ri1\sa120
\ls26\ilvl0
\f2 \cf0 \uc0\u61623
\f1 Put the first name first and the last name last. For example:

\f4 Jack London
\f1 \
\pard\pardeftab709\sa120
\cf0 \
\pard\pardeftab709\li360\fi-360\ri1\sa120
\ls27\ilvl0
\f2 \cf0 \uc0\u61623
\f1 If the author's name as presented in the book includes initials, append
each initial with a period (.) and a space. For example:
\f3 \uc0\u8232
\f4 H. H. Hall
\f1 \
\pard\pardeftab709\sa120
\cf0 \
\pard\pardeftab709\li360\fi-360\ri1\sa120
\ls28\ilvl0
\f2 \cf0 \uc0\u61623
\f1 In a list of authors, use a comma to separate the authors' names,
rather than an "and" or a character such as an ampersand (&) or forward slash
. For example:
\f3 \uc0\u8232
\f4 Joe Morton, Frank Shaw
\f1 \

\pard\pardeftab709\li360\fi-360\ri1\sa120

\f2 \cf0 \uc0\u61623
\f1 Do not include authors' titles, honorifics, occupations, degrees, or
