I may end up doing it that way, but my style is to go through a routine of things to check for and then use the screen reader to read continuously. Maybe I'll get a braille display hooked up and take advantage of the ability to read and easily spot them and quickly navigate to the spot with the cursor routing keys.
Not sure yet. Thanks, Lori----- Original Message ----- From: "Susan" <slumpkin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

I'd just correct them as I was proofing the book Lori. To me that seems easier than anything else since you're reading the book anyway!

Theletter is there, just the wrong case. So, I can catch the proper names with spell-check or search and replace making sure to check case. I am wonderingabout the best way to handle the first letter of sentences. I was thinking that I could perform a find and replace using a punctuation mark space and then each letter of the alphabet with care to make sure thecheck case option is checked. I know I'll have to do all ending punctuation as well as the punctuation and then a closing quote. Spell-check seems to becatching the instances like i'm or i'll where i is not capitalized.
