Yes, Mike, but that's in theory. Many scanners are not very careful, and many of us like Lissi want the books that we approve to be perfect. Please don't discourage her (smile). Plus, if it should have been hyphenated because it was an adjective and not a compound word (which isn't the case here, to my surprise when I checked the dictionary) and students read it and got the wrong grammatical idea ... Lissi, there are many of us perfectionists here, as well as those who do an excellent job of scanning and prevalidating before they scan. so the validators job is really easy--and there are some in both groups who just do the minimum required.
