Hi Mayrie,
Thanks a million! I'm sure I'll adore it... between my new Kurzweil
software and learning to proofread accurately, plus all these books that
are
now accessible to me, Kim's a deliriously happy girl! LOL
I'm extremely happy to be here, too!
Warmest,
Kim

Hi Mayrie,
Many thanks! Both for the confirmation and the words of encouragement.
LOL
I'm a very thorough, detail-oriented person by nature, so wanted to
double-check. *smile* I appreciate the help and support very much!
Warmest,
Kim

HI Kim,
Absolutely! You can and should change font and standardize it, then bold
and enlarge where necessary! You've got the process well in hand!
Happy proofreading!

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] font Question
Hi All,
Well, I'm just about to begin proofing my first Bookshare book! *gulps*
Before I did it, I wanted to familiarize myself with the steps, and, as
much
as possible, get comfortable with them. I know practice and the routine
of
doing them over and over for books will make it easier. Hahaha.
Hopefully
after successfully completing this one, I won't feel so daunted.
*sheepish
grin*
My question is about the font. This particular book has a font that my
Word
2003 doesn't have installed, so it said it would show me the closest font
available. I understand that Times New Roman is an easy font to read,
and
know from the documentation that it's a recommended font. I already know
that I can't change text. But is it okay to change the type of font. In
other words, could I select the entire content of the rtf, change it to
times new roman 12 point, and then change the size of particular chapter
titles, book title, etc, as required?
Any info is very much appreciated!
Thanks much!
Kim
