They used to keep the originals, and I don't believe that has changed. For that matter, I have what I believe is an old original awaiting my attention on my Step 2 page, that was inadvertently culled out of the collection and placed back on the step 1 page a while back. So I think the answer remains yes they keep the old copies.
As we didn't get an answer regarding special character attributes, I took a look at a couple of my more recent downloads from the collection, and I did find italics and bold in 1 of the 2 I checked.

Yeah, the NSA probably would have us thrown us in the penn for our excessive use of invisible ink. If I don't hear anything on attributes such as italics and how it relates to DAISY, I'll write support or start a new topic. If we're going to keep these attributes in our books, I don't know why bookshare would throw it away when converting to DAISY. THoughts?

By the way, Noel, yes that was quite interesting with the white on white. Do you suppose if we started making a habit of that we would draw the attention of the NSA or FBI to our little list?
