Hi everyone!
Thanks for all of your suggestions! I changed a few settings, and it is
doing a much better job scanning. There is a page near the front of the book
that is getting on my nerves, but I think I will leave that one for the
proofreaders.
Evan, I am something of a perfectionist when it comes to this sort of thing,
so I would happily enjoy reading the list you have.

Not only can you repair the errors, but you are encouraged to do so. Please correct any scanning errors you come across and if you miss any the proofreader will hopefully catch them. Your scanning software should have settings that will insert all page breaks, but until you find that setting do insert the missing page breaks. I think you are scanning two pages at a time in one page mode. But if you want to take extra time - or it might be less time because you will likely not have so many scanning errors to correct - scan in one page mode one page at a time rather than two pages at a time. I find that will reduce the number of scanning errors.

Hi everyone!
So, tonight, I have begun scanning one of the books I have received. So far, it’s doing an OK job, but I am definitely seeing some errors. Lots of 11s in place of h and stuff like that. I feel compelled to clean up some of them, especially ones that I know I can fix. Can I do this, or do I have to leave it the way that is, even if it’s pretty bad?
Also, right now, my scanner is saving the file as a KES document. When I have finished scanning the book, and save it as an RTF for book share, will it put in the page breaks, or do I have to do that manually? The reason I ask is because my scanner identifies the page breaks, but only for each newly scanned page. In other words, there are actually two print pages on one scanned page if that makes sense.
Thanks for all your help!
