What he said, crank up the brightness a bit, move the dpi up to 400, that 
should fix it.

  I couldn't remember whether up or down was appropriate, to be honest. I will 
try to go up. Thank you for reminding me.

    Did you go up on the brightness setting?

      Just a lot of die for the, th's are sometimes turned into M's. I will see 
an H instead of two L's. Things like that.

        What kind of problems are you getting with the scan? OCR errors, I mean?

          Hi, all.

          For the first time since I've had my opticbook 3600, it's giving me 
trouble with a paperback book. I optimized several times, and these are the 
settings I got. I'm wondering if anyone can suggest changes that could be made 
to improve the scan. I'm getting very low competence levels, sometimes 94 and 
below.

          Static thresholding is being used. Resolution is 300. Brightness is 
42. Speckle removal is disabled. Text quality is draft dot matrix, and 
recognition engine is finereader 8.1.

          If anyone has any ideas how to improve this, I would greatly 
appreciate it.
