Mary, the answer is yes and no.
I examined the book again, and it looks like all the text is there, but
there are only a few page breaks. Admittedly, there is a known problem
with K1K with not handling MS Word section-breaks when they are used as
page-breaks, but this has been fixed in the driver I am using. I do not
believe this is the problem here.
Perhaps the anonymous submitter of the book can post to the list so we can
assist him/her with configuring the OCR package used, to generate page
breaks correctly.

Guido,
Is there a chance that the books in question aren't truncated, but are
being improperly paginated by K1k? That is, K1k told you page 32, but its
really a much later page number, and k1k had put several pages onto
one of its pages? I had a book recently open in k1k and was astounded to
learn that the book just opened was supposedly over 2400 pages in length.
Now that would be a hell of a scan job. But of course, the book
isn't really that long. K1k just flipped out for whatever reason and
seriously screwed up the pagination.
