Dear Gene,

I have a question about scanning. Would you please contact me off list at

airadil@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Don't panic, group, I'm not going to attempt scanning...not this week...There are twenties and thirties of validating mistakes I haven't made, yet.

Always with love,

Lissi

Yep Cindy. Sanning gets to be kind of like rowing, flip, scan, flip, scan,
flip scan, you get a rhythm going and all else kinda fades into the
background until...holy hobgoblins, the book's been scanned! Then comes the fun part of proofing your own work, which of course, any veteran scanner can
ttell you is often tedious work. We often see what we know should be there
in our own works, so it usually takes somebody else who hasn't been slaving
over the scanner for 3 or 4 hours to spot the errors. Like missing pages.
Lol.

It happens to the best of us, Jamie. I'm almost
through validating an 800-plus page books and was so
excited, thinking I was going to be finished last
night, when I discovered 12 pages were missing--and
the scanner is a good, conscientious person. When I
scanned I found a fw pges missing and others
double-scanned--I always chekced the pagination before
submitting is how I found them. I think sometimes we,
or at least I, zone out when scanning. And sometimes
pages stick together--and for that matter, sometimes
oages or even a chapter are missing from the print
book. I was reading one book for myself and half the
Prologue was missing--and it was important. I had to
get another copy.
