Amber, It's my pleasure. Let me know if you have any trouble. E, thanks for suggesting that I put the tip on paperback settings on Jake's site. I thought it was already there. Maybe I should look more often.

I am working on a Nancy Drew mystery, and I am having a lot of luck. I tried your settings changes, unfortunately I can't press hard on the binding because it is a library copy, but it seems to be scanning well in spite of that. I will be scanning some other paperbacks soon too, so hopefully these settings will work well for those as well. thank you Pratik and all!

I give you this warning that you may prepare your mind for your fate. John Adams E-Mail: amber.wallens@xxxxxxxxx
