Sounds like the sort of thing we would need eyes for and a copy of the book!

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] To submit or not to submit a matter of quality
hi you all, got a dilemnia,
I am reading
"Hot dog" by laurien Berenson, is a pretty good mystery about dogs, show
poodles in fact, and about a mystery of a stolen dachshund, or so the story
has gone so far.
My dilemnia, is this.
I have already attempted to rescan this book, so that is not a possiblity at
this point.
The text is flaweless, for most of the book except for and it is regular,
but I can't figure out why, or how, unless there was a problem in the
printing of this particular paperback copy. But about a line at the bottom
which usually is one or two words, is garbled beyond any skilled
recognition. I can't figure out what the words are supposed to say. i can
figure out the intended meaning, but I don't know if that is the real intent
and words of the author.
Beyond this the book is perfect.
I would like to submit it to the collection when I am done as her books
aren't available from NLS,. But... I am going to mark it good, smile.
Will anyone read it, and would you consider it a good copy, and is this a
case of a book is better than no book?
I want to know your thoughts. As I am on chapter nineteen and obviously am
enjoying the book exept for those bits of garbled text.
By the by I used.
Grayscale, 400 dpi, had the book exactly aligned with the left side of the
scanner, two page mode on, columns recognized, and Finereader 7 as the OCR
engine.
There are no other errors that I can find in the book except for Tm for I'm
and some junk that is representing the word You, i suspect there is some
fancy font, and it is a Mass Market paperback.
The paper is not yellowed, or at least it doesn't have that smell, but it is
obviously of bad quality paper. But since the discussion of poor scans have
come up I was wondering. I mean I am cleaning this thing up to the best of
my ability and all you perfectionists sparked the trait in me, smile. But
let me know what you are thinking.

Puppies are the joy at one end.
Old dogs are the treasure at the other.
