Hi. Here's a suggestion. When you find a word which is commonly not scanned correctly in the book and you are able to find the correct spelling, use the search and replace feature of Word, K1000, etc to fix it. For example, I was working on Agatha Christie's autobiography. It's an interesting read, by the way. For some reason, "fiat" kept showing up in place of "flat." I simply replaced the incorrect word with the correction and it took no time at all. I don't mean to seem critical, but the wrong word appearing a dozen times is rather bad and should really be fixed. You might want to write to Gustavo, have him return the book to the step 1 page, correct the dozen incorrect names and reupload. Again, those are only suggestions.

I just validated The Captains Daughter, Star Trek TOSBY Peter David. Kellie, this was probably the best scan Ive ever read. I only had to add in a few page numbers. There was a name I should have fixed in some places, but I didnt realize the correct spelling until the character was killed off. Oh, well, the wrong spelling is only in there about a dozen times, and the wrong spelling is a real word anyway. That was part of my
