I Agree with Roger. I always scan one page at a time.
I find there are more errors when you scan two pages at a time.
I have an Opticbook scanner so the book loads from the front which is much
easier for scanning. My philosophy is that if I prevent any errors through
better scanning, it's worth it.

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!
