Cindy,
Don't worry about the first three books or the Table of Contents. Scanning
the tables wouldn't help since they wouldn't have the correct page numbers.
It would take just as much work to fix those tables as it would to fix the
ones already in the file. My primary reason for mentioning that problem was
to let the submitter know to turn off column recognition while scanning
Tables of Contents in future books.
Thanks for signing up for Lady Knight. Sounds like it will probably be a
little while before the book's available so we'll see if the submitter
responds before then. If not, then I'll send you the two surrounding pages
so you can find the missing text. As I said, it shouldn't be hard to find
since it appears to be at the end of a chapter.
Drop me an e-mail when the book's available, and I'll let you know if I hear
from the submitter.
Thanks again for the help.
Gerald

I think that will work, Gerald. If I understand you,
then you want pages 647 and 648 checked to see if both
pages are a map (which maybe I could describe) or one
page is a map and if the other page is text, that
should be scanned and validated and sent to you.
And you?d like each of the five tables of contents
fixed ? Five? There are 4 books. Is the fifth table of
contents the the whole volume and then each of the 4
books has its own table of contents? I assume your
file is rtf, so the formatting should be able to be
retained. For that, I?ll have have all four books.
Squire, Page and First Test theoretically are on the
shelf in my branch, and I?m going on Wednesday. I?ve
requested Lady Knight.
In the meantime, I?ll see if I can get copyright info
anywhere for your volume. It looks from what you sent
that you have a paperback volume containing all 4
books but that the copyrights remained with Pierce and
and the dates remained the same as for the hardbounds
? unless Random House or SFBC copyrighted this volume
separately.
I see SFBC has a web page. If I can?t find copyright
info elsewhere quickly I?ll go to their web page.
If you do hear from the submitter, please let me know.
I?ll let you know when I have the books in hand.
Unfortnately, it may take several days to get Lady
Knight. It seems to be very popular, but I am first on
the hold list.
