And just for everyone's information, aside from many (not all) pages missing 
many or all paragraph breaks and the only right quotes appearing so grammar 
check told her to eliminate the preceding space, Sadi did an amazing job for 
first projects, including being a real sweetheart and moving pagination to the 
top to help me navigate easier.

So glad to have another enthusiastic scanner, so hope someone can help her 
determine if there is a setting to better retain paragraphing in particular.  
also, if someone (Mayrie?) can give Sandi the ASCII code for right curly to be 
substituted with straight quotes in a global find and replace before she edits, 
that would be helpful.  Odd that they all appeared to be right quotes…

Thanks, folks!

Valerie
