[bksvol-discuss] Re: contents in columns?

And, to my way of thinking, being able to read a book is what counts. I think 
page numbers, footnotes, bibliographies, and even indexes have their place in a 
scholarly work, but it's the text that counts most.

As I said, Guido, the important thing is that all of the text be included.  
Yes, all pages should be included.  However, if page numbers are not available, 
a book should not be trashed if the text quality is what it needs to be.  Until 
a member of the Bookshare staff says differently, I'm sorry, but those are the 
rules!

  Sorry,  there must be a 1 to 1 match between printed pages and etext pages.  
If pages are missing they should be integrated.  If there are duplicate pages 
extra copy must be removed.   
  If it is clear there is no 1 to 1 page correspondence,  at least for the 
body-text after all front matter, and nothing can be done about it,  the book 
should be trashed. 

  Let's keep quality up, folks!

  Hi, Rachael!  The main thing is to make sure that all of the text is there.  
If yyou have access to the book, you can re-scan pages to make the numbers 
match up if you want to.  Take care!

  In general you should scan with column recognition turned off and 
two-pages-per-scan turned on.  It may be faster to rescan the table of contents 
than to fix it.

  hello, i've only validated until now but thought i'd try a bit of scanning.
  The table of contents is in two columns, do I leave the information this way
  or do I put it on separate pages so it flows numerically?
  Ex:
  chapter 1        chapter 5
  1-1                 5-1
  1-2                 5-2
  etc                  etc

  OR

  chapter 1
  1-1
  1-2
  etc
  chapter 2
  etc
  chapter 3
  .
  .
  chapter 5
  5-1
  5-2
  etc


  Thank You
  Rachel
