Julia,
It eventually ends, or so I'm telling myself. I'm currently scanning
a BSO of Trinity by Leon Uris, which is 897 pages long. I was over
half way through when I realized that I was scanning in the wrong mode
in Kurzweil, meaning that the page breaks wouldn't show up on
Bookshare, so over I've started. Here's to perseverance *grin*
