I believe Jake said a long time back that the Bookshare tools could handle
tables as is. I've reformatted them occasionally, if they're simple,
otherwise it a whole lot of work.
Please leave in the book captions. If you have your own descriptions too,
that might be helpful, but a student might need to know what the caption
in the book says.
Me, I'd leave the pictures, tables, etc where they are, not move them to
the end. If a picture or graph can't be scanned, and all you can give is
the caption, there's not much to be done, though you could make a note.
That's what I think.
