I wonder--if it needs to be improved in Braille, might
it not also need to be improved in other formats? An
alternative to re-scanning, depending on how bad the
existing shape is, is to ask Gustavo to put it back on
the download list and validate it. Personally, I find
validating and correcting easier than re-scanning, but
that's just me.
