Hi Ann, If you can tell us the sentences with the garbled text, we can better help you. Generally I don't delete anything I can't understand until I'm sure it's really junk. If you'll copy the sentences to us that contain the garbled parts, we'll all give it a go for you. Also, if you can tell us the page numbers on which the text appears, perhaps someone can help you out by looking at a print copy of the book, or can use Amazon's peek feature to see the text.

Within the first 20 pages or so, there were two jarbled words mixed within a paragraph. I don't know what to do about them. The words are random letters thrown together. I'm not sure as to what they are supposed to be. So far I've left it alone. If I delete the words, I wont know what to put in heir places. Other than that, I haven't had a problem with proofing the book. My question is should I leave them alone? The jarbled words don't make any sense, and I'm unsure if they are apart of the book or if its an error on the part of the scanning. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Ann P.S it's a great book so far. I can't wait to finish it. Ann
