Hi, Mayrie.
I just tried that too, following your instructions.
That didn't seem to work either. So, I'm either not doing it correctly or the
print pretty much runs off the end of the page.
If I ever publish my own book, I'll make sure it's formatted for ease of
scanning. *Grin*
Thank you for your suggestion. I'll try it again in a bit... When I'm less
frustrated.

Hi Christina,
I don't use Fine Reader, but I have had this problem. It happens
primarily when the book is printed so close to the binding that the OCR can't
tell where to split the text between two facing pages. It doesn't happen on
all pages when I do as you are doing. What I have done to fix the pages on
which it does occur is to rescan those particular pages in single-page mode.
When I do this, because I've already determined that the book is printed very
close to the binding, I place the book on the scanner (very awkward is this)
with a little more of the book on the scanner than just the page I want. It is
definitely not simple, and takes a steady hand, but has been the only solution
I've found.
Good luck!
Mayrie

Hello, all.
I'm using FineReader 7 and the Plustek Opticbook 3600. I'm scanning in dual
page mode but both pages are showing up as one page and the page before it is
blank.
For example, pages 14 and 15 of the book are combined into one page while the
previous page in the document shows up as blank.
I've submitted more than 60 books and this has only happened once before. (I
couldn't figure it out then either.)
This doesn't happen with all of the pages wich confuses me even more.
I've tried scanning in single page mode but then the ends of the lines are
cut off. This leads me to believe that the print goes all the way to the
outside of the page.
I changed the paper size and tried a4, Letter, and Default and got the same
results.
Any ideas on how to successfully scan this book? Are there settings I need
to change?
Thanks for any help.
Christina
