Lora, had the same problem but since it was a short book, had a lot yesterday
reading it. I could be wrong in my theory, but one reason could be that the
page wasn't flat on the scanner. I have done this myself but gone back and
rescan the page. I wonder if the type could have anything to do with it. I'm
not the expert though so maybe Jake or someone else with more expertise will
have the answer.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Scans with Spaces in the Middle of Words
I'm validating a book now that has a random space in the middle of words,
perhaps four or five times a page. The spell checker will catch most of these,
but if the space appears in such a place that the characters before and after
the space both form words, I'll never know.
I suspect there's no way around this but reading the book through, which I
may not have time to do.
Any idea what causes the OCR to do something like that?
Just curious,
Lora
