Hello,
Welcome as a volunteer.
When you take ark files, you will need to convert them to rtf and upload
them as rtf any way. You hsould have no trouble if you choose to convert
the file to rtf and edit it with MSWord.
As you're juststarting out, I would recommend that you go to Jake Brownell's
web site and read some of the volunteer tips. Go to
http://www.jbrownell.com. The site is very usable/accessible. These tips
will save you from making beginner mistakes.
Hope this helps. Let us know if you have any questions.
Pratik

HI all,
I am looking to validate my first book, as I have been a member, but just
got signed up as a validator. There are three books, any of which I would
be happy to validate, but they are all in .ark format. I can read them;
that's not the problem. I do have Openbook as my scanning software anyway.
My question is: Can I edit these in Word and should I then change them back
to .ark to be uploaded or could they be uploaded back in .rtf format?
Obviously, I would and could only do one of these three; I know that, so I
don't need that clarified. The reason I ask this is that I find Openbook to
be a fine scanning program, but I find it cumbersome for editing with. The
speech is just a bit more sluggish than JAWS by itself and I'd just rather
use Word if I can, plus I find Word's spell checker easier to use, because I
can read the context of where the error is found; whereas, with Openbook,
this is not possible to my knowledge. Any answers on this would be
appreciated. As I said, I can read the ark format, just would really like
to not have to use the Openbook program itself to do the validation if I
don't have to.
