What is the protocol for tables?
I've got quite a few in the book I'm validating - I'm using a library
copy of the printed book because the scanned version is all goofed up,
as I would expect. But what I'm doing is using tab stops and recreating
a table in tabular form. Will this work for folks? If not, what should I
be doing? 

 

She says, halfway through the book and hadn't thought of asking before
now!

 

Also, I'm wondering what screen readers will do with this quote from an
18th century midwife. Can someone reassure me that it is decipherable?
