I wish this worked, I have been trying to do this off an on all day and
nothing seems to be working. I hate to give up because this is a good
scan, but doing a rank spelling leaves me with lots of weird endings and
prefixes so it is almost useless. I am not finding the typical scanning
errors, so far no missing pages, just this annoying problem that keeps
telling me there are zero corrections when I can see or rather hear it.
I am not willing to do this manually one by one on a 900 page document.
This seems to be the only problem, and maybe it is me, but rank spelling
doesn't seem to be all that useful, then again, I have seldom used it.

Hi, Rose! The quickest way to fix this is to do a find and replace,
control
H. Go to one of these hyphens followed by a new line, select both
characters by pressing Shift right arrow twice, copy to clipboard
(Control
C), press Control H, and then press control v to paste the selected
characters into the Find field. I can't remember the shorcut key for
Replace all, but you can either tab or shift-tab to it and press Enter.
The
same works for hyphens followed by tab characters. FYI, to search for a
tab, type backslash t in the find field; to search for a hyphen followed
by
a new line, type hyphen, backslash, n. Hope this helps! Now it's
naptime!
