Hi, Scott, I went to the site and could read the scanning manual okay. I use
Jaws 11 and I have a BrailleNote mPower which I can use as a Braille display
for proofreading purposes. I wanted to read the proofreading manual. It's
written like an outline, but I couldn't get into the very first part where
is described checking out a book, formatting it, etc. I'm thinking this
document must be larger, I just wish it was easier to navigate to all the
sections without having to go back up to the top of the page every time.
Regards, Kim Friedman.

Very helpful feedback.

A bit of background; We lack a system here with all flavors of AT load onto
it that would have allowed us to do more interface testing before inflicting
this on you. Thanks for your detailed explanations of failures as well as
including what tool you used when you discovered. Some of the problems
people note are artifacts of wiki markup and will be resolved when we
convert to other formats but some are just design flaws we need to address.

Bob, you're so right. We don't need all that.
