Hi Bud, You don't need the ISBN, if your book doesn't have one. I can't remember exactly when, but before some time I think in the 1970's, books didn't have them. Those long dashes are only a problem for certain speech synthesizers. If you switch to eloquence, everything will be pronounced properly.

It seems to take place in the 1800's and has to do with mutiny, flogging and hanging and all that good stuff. I'm not far enough into it to get a real picture yet. By the way, there doesn't seem to be an isbn number, is that going to be a problem? Another question, since the new "stripper" takes numbers from the bottom of the page and puts them at the top, is it necessary for us to do the usual line space between page number and text if they're at the bottom? I guess it's not called a stripper anymore, that sounds like a burlesque show One lasdt question, or comment maybe I should say. I hate those long dashes they put between words so much these days. While reading it always doesn't pronounce the first letter after the dash and I'm always stopping and going back to see if the complete word is there. I wonder if it just reads that way with Kurzweil and maybe not with other readers. I'll announce it when I finish the book and send it in..
