Before you do anything, please make a backup copy. Perhaps make two backup copies. Can't hurt!

Then know your proof reader will thank you for making those changes.
Please make the changes on your backup copy. Things can go wrong for anybody and backups are a way of staying calm and centered.
Again, your future proof reader thanks you for being kind and careful.

I have just finished my scan of "Mayor of MacDougal Street: A Memoir" by Dave Van Ronk with Elijah Wald.

It was a beautiful scan, and the ranked spelling is all done, and even yes, the index.

I was thinking of trying for my first time to follow the Tips in the manual where you do the replacements etc Where you open the file in Word and do the search and replace all of the various things like smart quotes and such that I hear some of you have been talking about.

Before I do it, though, I wanted to make sure it is desired. Or if really when I send up and upload it, and submit the RTF file of the book. Will those cnanges be retained?

I guess before I spend the time to do the extra mile, I want to be sure that I am not doing it for no reason.

Thanks.
