Hi Gerald:

If you would ask the staff about this I would appreciate it. The book is 615 
pageslong and the file size is 1900KB, unzipped. But as I said I can't upload 
it zipped either.

  I need to call Bookshare to check on a few things for the list anyway, so 
I'll bring this issue up again.

   

  Cindy, I doubt it has anything to do with the upgrade that took place this 
week because this is a problem that has been going on for some time.  It's 
likely that this problem has existed since the beginning and that we don't see 
it very often because there are not that many 1000 plus page books.

  Hi folks:

  I also have tried to upload this book without success. In the 4 years of 
validating I have never been unable to upload a book.

  There's no punctuation in the file name, and I've even shortened the file 
name.

  As Ernie said, it gets up to 99 percent and hangs. When I zip the file it 
gets up to 38 percent and it hangs. I saved the file as txt and then back to 
rtf hoping it would get rid of any strange formatting, but no luck. I've tried 
to upload it on 3 separate occasions.

  I have broad bend connection.

  I am stumped. Any suggestions, comments would be appreciated.
