Thanks, Misha. I am sighted, so I can add a few things that aren't well covered in the text.

I suspected they are removed by the submit tool. But maybe I have been wrong. In any case, I have always removed charts and pictures of any kind when I scan. If important features of the charts are described fairly well in the text, that should be enough. If your reading of the text makes you feel there is something more in the graphs that you are missing, you can ask to have a seeing volunteer find the book and send description for you to put in as proofer notes.
