Hi, if I'm preparing to read a bookshare book, I usually remove all page
numbers to make them read smoother with speech. Using a voicenote qt how can I
search for otherjunk characters that may be in the book? I know how to find
and replace, but what I need to know is how do I know what to look for?
Hope that made some sense.
Stacey
