Hi Monica, Yes and No!When Fine-Reader 8 came out this problem was noted.
The problem is as follows. FR is inserting a section-break-continuous as
well as regular section-breaks. But Word has no way of distinguishing
between them, so I assume other software packages don't either. Also FR has
a propensity of inserting section-breaks where ever one of those little
geegaws appear in front of chapter headers. Fix it? Tried it, been talking
to Steve Rosales at Fine-Reader tech support, (510-226-6717), - they don't
know anything, but you should complain to them because that's the only thing
that will move them to fix it! Good Luck, Tom

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Carrie's Scans And Word Weirdness
Hi. I'm writing to ask for help. Lately when I take one of Carrie's scans, I keep running into the same problem. When I get the rtf file, it has section breaks as always. However, when I use the find and replace feature and replace ^b with ^m it makes 2 page breaks for every section break that used to be there, and column breaks start showing up where there were none before I do this replacement. This only happens with Carrie's recent scans. I tried an older scan done by Carrie, and it worked perfectly. This didn't start happening till about 2 or 3 months ago. Before that, this find and replace thing worked just fine, and I validated 30 or 40 of Carrie's books. Does anyone know what I'm dealing with and what I can do to fix it? I haven't applied any updates to Office XP. Am I doing something wrong and just don't know it? Once I change the section breaks to page breaks, sometimes the page number and header will have a page break above it and then right below it so that a book of 500 pages ends up being over 900 pages with these breaks. I am seriously stumped. Can any of you help?
