Scott, the answer is yes, or at least it was when I
joined as a volunteer. And therefore I don't know why
so many books have been submitted in doc, txt, and
ark.
Grace, I hope the title was spelled correctly when you
approved and uploaded it. (smile). What you wrote
here in the post is C r u m w e l l. If your book was
about Oliver, and time between the Charleses (The
Reformation? The Interregnum? ) the u shoud be an o.
Unfortunately, the name sounds similar despite the
difference in spelling, depending on who's pronouncing
it (smile).

I just validated a book about Crumwell. It took
some time because it
wasn't scanned with 2 page mode, I had to add the
page breaks.

I'll be honest, I've tried validating, and
unless the book is something
I like, I don't feel comfortable validating it.
That's why I usually scan,
and then validate the same book. My question is,
could I download an ark
file from the step 1 page and convert it to rtf and
then put it back on the
step 1 page so that someone else might validate it?

I also have openbook. So if there's an ark
book on the download page
that you're dying to read, let me know and I will
validate it. However, it
may be after convention since I am going to the NFB
convention.
BTW, 1 of the books that I am working on is an
ark. Lately I've
ignored the arks and been doing txt.

Hi All. I think from the scanning
discussions most of us use
kurzweil which means all those ark files from
openbook can't be validated.
I think a good project for someone like Gisela or
any other openbook users
would be to convert .ark to .rtf so more books can
be validated. I have an
old version of open book v4.0 I think before
switching to Kurzweil a few
years ago. I can't convert .ark files from newer
versions of openbook. In
fact, the only reason I still have my old version is
that I'm converting
some personal and textbook files to .rtf. I also
save kurzweil files as
.rtf so I can refer to them within word when writing
papers or reports for
school and work.
Just some thoughts.
