Hi,
I will add to this that as a blind validator, it would probably be
difficult to correct all font problems. If I am incorrect about this, I am
certainily open to validation help.

Hi Judy

Before telling you my thoughts about your question let me introduce myself
I'm Anastasia; I am legally blind and use a screen enlarger. So I can see
the print but it is straining so I prefer to listen.

Here are my thoughts: I scan in one file type that keeps the format, kes,
and submit it in one that deletes the format. This type, rtf is more
universal. RTF automatically deletes the formats. It is more fluid
listening to it without the format. However, I can understand as someone
who reads print why keeping the format in tact for the recent members
would be beneficial, the only format that keeps the print in tact is KES
and  that is not a universal file. I hope I have answered your question If
you have further questions or would like to further discuss this topic
please email me off list.

Anastasia
