OK, that's why I am glad I found the scanning manual, even though I've
not yet taken the time to read it. Two different friends who use
Bookshare (but who are not volunteers, as far as I know), told me that
books are to be uploaded in the format I used to scan them in--in my
case, with the .KES extension that Kurzweil uses. So once again,
thanks for your help, Mayrie. It's good to come into this new venture
without jumping to preconceived conclusions. I don't want my effort
to be rejected, given the amount of time it takes to scan a
full-length book.
Cheers,
-Kane
