Hi Amber, Have you recently cleaned your scanner? Or is there anything else that the bad pages have in common? Are they always in a book? Or are they sometimes lose sheets of paper?

A question for anyone using FR. I have been getting great scans with FR eight, but every few pages, there are words that have extra letters inserted in the middle of them. This happens with all kinds of books, but only on certain pages. Is there a setting I need to change, or is my scanner slowly but surely dying? On other pages, though, I get flawless scans. Any thoughts?

I give you this warning that you may prepare your mind for your fate.
