I think we need to be careful. Under no circumstances are we to edit the
books we scan or validate. That would break copyright. We only reproduce, as
closely as humanly possible. We can't (or shouldn't) even correct spelling
errors, if they're in the print text.
I'm only speaking up in case any publishers should see these posts.
