Louise, I would submit the books anyway. I don't think page breaks are
incredibly crucial, not crucial enough for you to not submit that gold mine,
anyway.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: .txt and .rtf
I have more than a thousand books that I've scanned in txt format, but
won't be able to submit to Bookshare since txt files don't have page breaks.
I can't see myself going page by page through all of these books and
manually putting in page breaks!! It's my understanding that by going to
save as in a txt file and then choosing the rtf format doesn't
automatically put in the page breaks. Therefore, I don't know of any quick
way of putting the page breaks in txt files.
Besides, I don't see why page breaks are so important in books such as
romances, mysteries, westerns, etc. I can see their validity in nonfiction
books such as textbook or reference books!!

Hi Pam,
The answer is yes if you can maintain the page breaks during your conversion.
Thanks, Marissa

Hi,
I have some books to submit eventually when I get them cleaned up, that are in .txt format. Would it be preferable to convert them to .rtf before submitting them?
