Since we get them as RTF files, I don't change them.

Actually I didn't remove them. My difficulty I thought was that I
couldn't find them and when I tried to play the file they were
spoken. So I was concerned that my file was no good because I didn't
know how to remove them. Thanks everyone for letting me know not the
try and remove them. But that does lead me to ask if others who scan
save their files as RTF right from the beginning or save them as Word
or text first and only change them to RTF before submission. I've
been saving them as RTF right from the beginning. Is that the best
way to do it?

Hi all,
Denise, what you are hearing is the mark-up for RTF. Dunnow why
it's showing up like that, but Word shouldn't be displaying those
chars. Don't delete them because they are part of the RTF
mark-up. I don't know what to say. I don't know why Word would do
this. Your phone probably doesn't have the capability to read RTF
files. So that's why your're getting them . I think if you deleted
some of the chars, that may be why Word is displaying them.
Don't use Wordpad to proof RTF files. It doesn't show the page
breaks properly. Use Word or Kurzie or Open Office or something like
that.
Me, I think I'd change it to txt and then redo it in RTF or better
yet, save as a word file first then put it into RTF. What you did
by taking out the "par"s is you destroyed the format markers. I
dunnow what to tell you to do. Your file's munged now. A good
solid reason for making copies of files before you mess with
them. Sorry for bringing you bad news. Please don't shoot the messenger!
