As a Bookshare volunteer, I can tell you that this is a very common scanning error. So I don't think it's a screen problem but simply one caused by the scanner and not caught by the proofreader. Jill ----- Original Message ----- From: "Melissa Smith" <mdsmith25@xxxxxxxx>

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] I's as 1's on Victor Reader Stream


Has anyone noticed I's being read as 1's on the Victor Reader Stream
with Bookshare daisy files? I noticed it several time in Prairie Tale,
and decided to check to see if it was read the same way with other
devices. I loaded the xml file with Internet Explorer 8, and did not
find the same thing. I haven't tried opening the opf file with Kurzweil,
yet, but plan to. This only occurs, when the I is actually the word I,
and not just an i in the middle of a word. I haven't had my Stream for
very long, so can't really say if this occurred in other books.
