, you can set fr to not scan pictures. Just draw blocks around them and have 
the recognition process skip that area.

  Hey, I validated An Inconvenient Truth (despite other people at the office 
telling me not to do it, since there were so many pictures, charts, graphs, 
fold-out pages, etc.)  I expect An Inconvenient Book will be the same.  It'll 
take me a while, but I'll get it done.

  Just occurred to me (I'm slow at times), I should take a look at An 
Inconvenient Book at a bookstore before ordering it.  If it's THAT bad, I'll 
skip it.  In the past 2 months, I've skipped 2 bestsellers since the text was 
all handwritten.  Validating them would have meant retyping the whole book, 
which is just too much for me.

  Carrie

  Watch your blood pressure and it won't be from the politics.  <grin>
  I'd want a subscription for this book all by itself.
