Hi Jamie,
I would definitely fix hyphens where they shouldn't be. And if
you're worried that something isn't right, you're likely right. Trust your
knowledge of how the English language works, and your intuition about
dialogue and I think you'll do swimmingly.
Also, if settings aren't set correctly in the OCR software, words that were
originally split on two lines won't have the connecting hyphens removed.
It's definitely okay, in my opinion to remove improperly placed hyphens
unless they reflect some sort of dialogue.
Just my opinion.
Mayrie

about
Hi, I'm finding words hyphenated like holding, confessed, and others. There
is even a sentence where it should say "two hundred dollars, and", and it
says two hundred dollarsmand. Is it okay to fix this? Thanks.
