I use post it notes for this. You can get the really small ones, and that way if you put it on the blank page, or in my case pages that need rescanning, It is on the page only. If I need to rescan two pages side by side, they both get post it notes. A cooperating teacher showed me this trick and I use it almost every time I need to rescan a page, or for school have to scan a certain section of the book. Shelley L.

I hav an Epson 1660. If you wife is sighted, could she perhaps put place marks or a paper clip or something on the blank pages for you (and tell you which side of the page is blank -- maybe use small clip if the blank page is on the right side of the page and a large one if it is on the left. Then you don't have to scan it at all. Then, when you check the file before submitting it, to be sure all the page numbers are there, you can put a page break and write blank page and the page number in brackets, so readers won't think they're missing anything. Maybe your wife can help you at that point, too, to tell you which numbered page is blank. Just a thought. Cindy --- __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
