Gary,  as I suggested in an other msg,  let K1K eliminate suspicious
regions.  If the process slows down recognition/scanning, do reco in batch
after you scan the entire book.  G.

I'll try the cleaning.  Btw, and last question, how do you handle
suspicious
regions?
Thanks.

Two page mode, as the book fit on the scanner better that way.

You might want to clean the scanner glass and see if it makes a
difference.

Smile.

Or else try 400 dpi as I have done that on occassion, though it slows
things
down dramatically.

The font is a little different.

I don't know.  I never read your copy.  The library finally came up with

the
copy I had ordered for myself, 4 months back.  I scanned it on a whim.
Your
copy is, I assume, as good as it ever was.  Did you use 2-page mode or
single?
Thanks.

Hi Gary,

Interesting, as I emphasized smile, the fact that it needed eting when
I
put
it up.

By the by,

the seetings were

Grayscale, 300 dpi, and Fine Reader 8 as part of Bookshare.

So.... I have to wonder, what happened to the book from my desk to
Bookshare, as most of what I glanced at read great.

Would whoever scanned If Democrats tell me what software and settings
they
used?  I just took a look at this book for curiosity's sake and found
it
a
horrible scan never exceeding 99.6 and much often lower.  After I went
through the book with rank spelling, I still had 455 errors.
Much appreciated, Thanks.
