  Subject: [bksvol-discuss] tables in Bookshare books plus another question


  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?
