Oh, I am so grateful for that option to pull down an original. It has been a lifesaver for me more than once.

What is the point of being so careful to save the original file if you can just go to your checked out books page and click the RTF link to download it again whenever you might need it? It makes a lot more sense to me to save a copy of your latest edited version to fall back on.

Welcome to the world of proofreading!Please be sure to not work off of the original download. Load it into Word and save as maybe as the filename without your name so that you can distinguish it from the original. No matter how experienced a person is, anyone can have what I call a "dumb" second and save changes that were not wise. I've done it, and I've been proofreading since late October. I also like to have a new file for each proofreading session, though others never do that, so that is a personal choice. I save each copy with a number so 1 gets saved as 2 in the filename, and so on.It doesn't matter how you choose to handle this as long as you have a virgin file to fall back on if necessary..Debby At 11:10 AM 12/20/2009, Stephanie wroteI hope it is alright, I am trying to proofread my first book here and was wondering who I sure open it. I have open it with Word but I was wondering if this was a mistake. Just wondering. OH! Does someone check behind you after you release it as I don't want to make a mistake..To unsubscribe from this list send a blank Email to bksvol-discuss-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxxput the word 'unsubscribe' by itself in the subject line.
