Hi Shannon,

You should probably stay away from txt files if all you have is MS Word or Wordpad to edit them with. You will just end up spinning your wheels and wasting a great deal of time to no effect.

    Hello list,
I have been listening to the discussion about the text files and the page
breaks.
What I want to know is I have seen a few on the download list that sound
interesting but they are txt files. If I am going to read it any way I'll
put the page breaks in so long as I know if the numbers are at the top or
the bottom of the page. But there is still a problem with that. If txt won't
holed them and I have to turn it back to bookshare  as text files they will
lose the page breaks again.
Marissa has said that she will talk to the powers that be and see about
allowing text files to be returned as rtf but in the mean time what should
we do. Take the txt files see if we can determine where the page numbers are
and do the work and wait till the change is made for the return trip?
I like to edit with word so I can change the paper size and the margins to
try to help the pages but what is the consensus?

Thanks to all of you for all the work,
Shannon
