Sounds ok except for dynamic. Did optimize pick that? Try static or
grayscale. If static, run optimize. If you get a really bad page, run it
again. Your other option would be to use grayscale. If you do that, do not
keep images in the file. Also, remember that just because you don't have
margins enabled, that doesn't mean you won't have margin problems with the
book. A really tight margin will still give you problems with scanners, even
the Opticbook, though the Opticbook will make it as easy on you as possible.
Unless the book has columns, you could turn columns off and go with single
page. Lastly, try and keep suspicious regions in the recognition area of the
settings options.
Do not be surprised to have some pages recognize better than others.
Hope this helps.
Good Luck.

Its a hardback, the book is laying flat on the scanner, single page scanning,
and columns are enabled, and when I look under margins it says disabled.
Threshold is dynamic, and the text is normal.
Thanks.

I don't understand what precisely is the problem. What size is the book:
trade, mass market, hardback? What page and column settings are you using?
What margins if any? What position have you got the book in on the scanner?
Like that.
Thanks.

Hi All--
I was wondering if anybody was scanning using an Epson 4490. I'm having
trouble getting all of the text on the page. Sometimes Kurzweil wil say page
complete, and other times it won't. Is there some general settings I can use?
I'm wondering if the problem is the Kurzweil settings or could it be my
scanner. Thanks.
