Dear Russ;
Are you saying that none of the 82 have pagination or page breaks? If so, that
really is not a good trend to set. I was under the impression that it was just
a
limited number and then the scans could be adjusted to have that. I can't
speak
for anyone else, but it probably took us 20+ hours to insert pagination and
page
breaks manually, and that was not proofreading. It is very time-consuming. Not
to mention trying to find exact copies of your books. If that is the case, are
you going to be willing to send your books to sighted volunteers to lessen the
burden of completing the work?

You are correct. I'm the one who has been uploading them. I now have all 82
Perry Mason novels. The remainder need pagination and page breaks.

Hi, Ann!
I think the problem with all these was they needed pagination and page breaks.
We did one, inserting them manually and it was time intensive, but scan was
high
quality otherwise. We were waiting to get some of ours back that we had sent
out to be scanned, but have not yet gotten them, so did not commit to more at
this time. Not sure how a blind person would insert pagination, but they are
good otherwise...

Hi all,
Cindy, I have just downloaded The Case Of The Perjured Parrot. I take it that
these are the Earl Stanley Gardner books you mentioned last night? If you
still
want this one, let me know and I'll release it. I am happy to proof it. I
suspect that it's one of these books done with Open Book that has section
breaks
instead of page breaks as it is listed as having fifteen pages.
Again, if you want this here book, I'll be happy to release it back to you as
it
still has your hold on it. Please advise.
Ann P.
