That opticbook is best suited for hardbacks, rather than paperbacks. This is because the light doesn't go all the way to the edge of the scanner, but stops about an inch in. This means that if you try scanning a regular paperback by putting the binder flush with the edge, you'll get chopped off words because the inner margins didn't get scanned. Try using a hardback on an opticbook. YOu'll be amazed. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Meka White" <mekawh@xxxxxxxxx>

Hi Jackie and others: I am reminded of a problem that I have in terms of the opticbook.Whenever I use the reading edge with kurzweil, I never, and I do mean never,get a clean scan. It's so full of errors and it hits way below a normalconfidence level. I have used different books, have tried optimizing, but tono avail. Do you have any suggestions? I thought I wasn't using the edge correctly but after Jackie's explanation, I realize that I'm at least doing the mechanics correctly.
