Ernie,
I tried validating that book and had trouble uploading it. Taht's why I
gave up.
It's not your system, or if it is, we both have the same problem. I
discussed the problem with my husband,k who is a software engineer and
encounters things like this daily and he says the problem is likely on the
other end....I can't remember his explanation though.
Email Gustavo or someone at bookshare and see if you can get some help
with this. I have a giant book that I've been tryingh to upload forever
and haven't been able to get any help with it.
And again, you can change the synopsis. It's

Robbin,
I might just hope it's there. It is "the Fountainhead,," which weighs in
at a little over 1100 pages.
As for the synopsis, whoever submitted the book originally (no doubt
inadvertently) missed Ms. Rand's point.
I do appreciate the encouragement.
Peace,
Ernie

You can correct the synopsis...that's one of the beauties of validation,
we can correct information in the input fields. I've had to do this a lot
for the author (incorrect input format) and copyright holder (some
submitters seem to be baffled as to what information is required here,
regardless of how clear the copyright holder might be in the actual
book).
Good luck with your upload problem. The only time I've had that happen is
why I'm trying to upload a very long book. I still haven't gotten a good
response from bookshare on this issue.

Hi all,
I just finished my first book, but I seem to be having a bit of a
problem uploading it.
I am using Jaws 7, and The book is an rtf file. After clicking the
"upload" button, and checking everything, I have clicked "Accept."
Anyone who uses Jaws knows that it will give you the percentage of the
file transfer.
In this situation, Jaws is going to 99 per cent, and stopping. at this
point, I am losing speach unless I get out of the application.
When I checked later, the system told me I still had the book and could
upload it. What gives?
Sorry to make this so long, but some explanation needed to be given.
One other observation--the synopsis is not correct. Can anybody give me
a hand?
Thanks.
Peace,
Ernie
