Dave,
Kenneth must have something special because I have never seen a better
scanning job.  In fact, I am gooiing to look in the onsite library and see
if this book is already there.  <smile>

You can get a number of junk characters, typically at the beginning or end
of a line, they include- J I F \ | & ^ ~ ; , as well as some others I
probably forgot.
The scanning software may try to recognize any imperfections in the print,
or smudges at times.  One way to cut down on this, but not a fool proof
method, is to have de-speckle turned on when scanning the book.
