Hi Roger and everyone!

I thought he meant that the line was truncated as Mayrie mentioned.

I have fixed some paragraphs while proofreading where there are a few words on a line, then a blank line, then the rest of the paragraph continued. It was obvious that the two lines, one above and one below the blank line should be joined, because the sentence was broken in every case I have come across.

If you mean three or four words on a line consistently I don't know what the problem is, but if you mean three or four words on an occasional line that sounds like the last line of a paragraph and it should be left as is.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] How much text on a single line?


When I scan a page, I sometimes get 3 or 4 words on a line. Do the people
that scan the books have to fix this, is it the proofers thing or does
bookshare fix this?
