Carey, please don't come down hard on Bob. He'd been helping me out on the
first book I ultimately rejected, so it wasn't like he offered anything very
serious. I do respect the organization, so I didn't mean to cross any
boundraies I shouldn't have. I've got my issues fixed, although with now
finding out that wordpad has taken out all page brakes I'm wondering if I'll
get a rejected on my validation. I'm sorry if I've cause any trouble, but word
pad is the oly thing i have to save files like that. E, thanks for the control
E feature, it's been years since I have used k1000 extensively. I really am a
nice person, bespite the string of annoyed and frustrated messages, grins happy
Thanksgiving everyone.

Hi Bob,
Please don't suggest sending a book from one member to another. You've
already signed an agreement stating that you won't distribute books in any
format to anyone else, which includes other members. In order for Bookshare to
continue operating, we all must stay within the bounds of the Bookshare legal
restrictions. Sorry to be so fussy, but I think Bookshare is a wonderful
organization and I don't want it to be sued.
Thanks! Carrie

Hi Siobhan.
If you will send me the book, I'll fix it in word and send it back to you.
It'll probably be late this evening or tomorrow morning, though.
Does anyone know if this problem exists if someone gets a .kes file from the
site, edits it in Kurzweil, converts it to .rtf in Kurzweil, and uploads it?
Otherwise, how can anyone validate with Kurzweil alone?
Bob
