I don't know what scanner program you are using but with Kurzweil such errors indicate to me that I need to run through optimize scan. Often the issue is one of brightness so you might try plaing around with that setting. ----- Original Message ----- From: <mlsestak@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

I don't know what other people do, I've only been validating for a couple months. But, I've collected a mental list of typical scannos like di for th and U for li or il. When I come across the first of one of these scannos in a book, I then use find and replace to hunt for and change any more that occur (and this quickly gives me an idea of how much trouble the book will be, because if there are a fair number of these typical errors, there are bound to be atypical ones in there as well). Unfortunately, you can't use global search and replace because not every die is really the and not every Up is really lip and not every bam is really barn, and so on. So, at least so far, I haven't found a simple solution. But for the most part, I am truly impressedat how good most of the scans are.

Sure sounds like typical scanning errors. Howdoes everyone handle this. Are there programs that can detect common scanos?Thanx, L...
