Hi Lori,Yes I had. In fact, those settings were already unchecked when the problem presented itself. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Scott, have you unchecked despeckle, language analyst, and white on black? The default is for those items to be checked, but unchecking them makes a world of difference. Someone gave that advice on this list a long time ago, so you may have already done the unchecking.Lori C.----- Original Message ----- From: "Scott Blanks" <captaincynic3@xxxxxxxxx>To: <bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, October 25, 2009 12:36 PM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: Openbook Punctuation scannoHey Jackie,I did tinker with brightness, using different settings, including both lightening and darkening the page, as well as picking random numerical values from the list. I've found that holding the book down more firmly on the glass eliminates maybe a quarter of the scannos, so that will have to do for now. I just hope this book is the exception, rather than the newly instated rule.Scott----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackie McBride" <abletec@xxxxxxxxx>To: <bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, October 24, 2009 11:43 AM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: Openbook Punctuation scannoHave u played w/the brightness, Scott?

I don't know if that has something to do with it or not. I'm using three way. I read my books as I go so I just fix the punctuation and go on. I can pretty much tell by ear when it's happening so I fix it. Denise At 01:12 PM 10/24/2009, you wrote:Hi folks, My usually trusty Openbook has decided to present a challenge with my current scan. The end of a line of dialog, which should read as period, followed by a closing quotation mark, is showing up either as a question mark, followed by an apostrophe, or a colon, followed by an apostrophe. I've played around with the scan resolution, OCR correction, and de-speckle options to no avail. I'm using Openbook 8, and working with the Omnipage + 2-way voting scanning engine. I've tried using Fine Reader, the version that comes with OB 8, but that yields overall less attractive results. Any thoughts?
