Hi Tom,
It worked! Thank you! Now I can complete this, and it looks to be an easy
validation.
Now the file is only 900K in size.
By the way, Word is picky. I tried ^M first, but that's not allowed.
I appreciate the help.
Lora

Hi Lora, use the global find and replace to remove the page breaks and
replace them with something that does not appear in the text, such as five
stars. Save as a text file, there-by losing all the garbage, go back in and
replace the markers, five stars, with a carrot m. The carrot is a shifted
six. That will replace the page-breaks and keep the small file size.. You
should save with a new name at each step to protect your original file. HTH,
Tom

Good Morning,
I'm validating an RTF file that is about 13 megs in size. This is a 435
page book. When it saves to .txt, it's only 626K. The only reason I can
think of for the discrepancy is that the RTF file includes all of the
scanned images. How would I verify this? Is there any way to save the file
to remove these pictures, without losing the page breaks?
I usually validate in Word, and the file size seems to be bogging down the
spell checker, and JAWS' ability to read in general.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Lora
