John,

It would help a lot if, instead of just having the
note "ReturnNew" you posted what the problems were,
i.e., kn this case, missing pages and many errors.
That way the scanner could re-scan, or other people
would know whether they want to get the book and
validate it or not.

But I wonder if you are thinking of the same book.
earlier comments about the book include donedone,a
couple of "publish"s and a valid. All those seem to
imply acceptance. I think that's what's confusing E.
It would seem that maybe just something simple like a
copyright verification or something would be needed,
but I'm sue E is confused because none of those
comments specify why the book wasn't approved.
