HI Monica, Greusca;e will make the file extremely big. Depending on how large the book is you may end up putting it in two files. It comes out about 7 megs per page. Next I would start to play with the brightness and some of the other settings. IN cases like this the optimize gives a good starting point.

Hi, everyone. I'm trying to scan a mass market quality paperback and am having a rough time of it. I'm using Kurzweil 11 and have optimized scan settings twice. I'm still getting a 96 percent accuracy rate and am getting words like certaindy instead of certainly. In almost every case, the letters ly are recognized as a d, and the letter w is often seen as a v. I tried going to 400 resolution with no change. So right now I have settings of static threshold, 35 brightness, and 300 resolution with normal text type. Does anyone have some ideas on what I can try next? Should I be using grey scale for paperbacks? Thanks. "Don't let yesterday use up too much of today!" Will Rogers Monica Willyard, rhyami@xxxxxxxxx Add rhyami to your Skype if you'd like to chat.
