Hi, Evan. I've found that more publishers are taking shortcuts with printing
these days, doing things like splitting words between pages and even between
lines. I think it looks sloppy and used to blame my OCR software. I've had
my dad look at some of the books I've scanned, and he confirmed that the
text is split in the print book. I've noticed it happening more and more by
certain publishers and with mass market paperbacks. Kurzweil can fix the
split words from line to line, and I'm grateful for that. I wish Openbook
had such a feature. More than that, I wish publishers wouldn't split words
to begin with.
