problem is, when you release a book, it goes back up in it's original 
format/condition.

  I have a kind of half formed thought about how we might be able to get more 
people validating the .ark books.  Could someone that has Openbook download the 
file, convert it to .rtf, then release it back to the web site as a rich text 
format file, thus allowing someone else to get their hands on the books they'd 
personally like to validate?  I might not quite have the logistics down, but 
there must be a solution we can work out.

    Hi Alison,
    Arc is the format used by Openbook, another OCR package that's a competitor 
to Kurzweil. Unfortunately if you don't have Openbook, you can't work on those 
files. It's a shame to because I would like to get my hands on that great big 
pile of language teaching and learning books that someone submitted.
