I just scanned a book (Elm Creek Quilters) with recipes in it, and have done quite a few cookbooks for Bookshare, and one problem is that 1/2 scans as 1/4 or vice versa. Without being able to look at the printed page, you don't know for sure that you got the right fraction. I also get % a lot instead of a fraction or even 1/Y for either 1/2 or 1/4. Sometimes 1/z comes out too though that is almost always 1/2 but you still have to look to be sure. -- Jamie in Michigan Currently Reading: Lost: The Search for Six of Six Million by Daniel Mendelsohn www.michrxtech.com/books.html
