Yeah, I realized that later. Still, he should get the Optimize Recognition dialog box I would think when the PDF file is loaded. But he gets nothing. I haven't done much recognition of PDF files, so I could be wrong about this.

Evan, Kelby is not scanning physical books. She is trying to OCR already scanned material.

Let's ignore that one for the moment. If you go to the Scan portion of Optimize, you will enter a dialog box that gives you anumber of things to check. You can check or uncheck whichever ones you wish.Some are checked by default, others are unchecked by default. Once you'vetabbed through to Okay, the optimization will begin. Make sure not to move the book until K1000 says, "Optimization complete." Then you can tab throughthe settings and see what has changed. Tab through to Okay again, or justhit the Enter key if you don't want to see the settings, and you'll be done.HTH Evan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kelby Carlson" <kelbycarlson@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, September 09, 2009 10:37 AM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] e: Re: OT: Kurzweil and Google BooksI am very confused about optimization. I open a Anddf, stop recognition and clic on optimize ... and nothing happens. Maybe I just need to get used to it; but K1000 really confuses me.----- Original Message ----- From: "EVAN REESE" <mentat3@xxxxxxxxxxx To: <bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date sent: Wed, 09 Sep 2009 08:59:50 -0500 (CDT) Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: OT: Kurzweil and Google BooksTwo things you can do: You can use the Optimization wizard in theScan menuand wait for K1000 to try and get the best scan it can. Or, youcan goimmediately for grayscale in the Scan portion of the Settingsmenu. Thatwill very often give you a pretty good result. The recognitionmay takelonger, substantially longer on an older system, although I don'tthinkthat's much of an issue these days. But grayscale will give yougood scanseven when other settings will not.Evan----- Original Message ----- From: "Kelby Carlson" <kelbycarlson@xxxxxxxxxxxx To: <bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, September 08, 2009 9:17 PM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] OT: Kurzweil and Google BooksDear Booksharians,I just received my copy of Kurzweil 1000 for personal use.
