[bksvol-discuss] use of columns in books

I know that when I use Kurzweil, and have columns enabled, it changes the
format so that it recognizes one column and then recognizes the next column.
The hard page breaks are kept. When the books are put in daisy format, I
assume that the number of pages are the same as for the print copy.

  Sharon thanks for your reply. In word if you pull down the format menu and
pick columns and apply to the document it should work. But in this case it
is going to be hard .When two columns is made one the number of pages   can
be doubled. Also there are big blank spaces and when I try to use the above
method, I assume it  may become messy.Any suggestions guys?

    It's better not to have columns in scanned books. It's better for us to
read one column, and have the next column below the first.

      Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Vegetarian cook book


      Hi All
      I have D/L this book . For vegeatarians it is a great book. Many of
the spices listed are the ones that I use.Some of the receipes that  I see,
I have been doing them.
      Coming to formating this book  I have some questions.Definitely I need
all your help.The formating is little bit different.
        a..  I see the print matter in columns (2 or 3) in most pages.Can I
keep the same format?I am doing for the first time such a format.
        b.. I also see big blank spaces in some pages. I assume these spaces
correspond to pictures in the print book. I find it hard to get rid of these
spaces. Is it okay if I keep the spaces?
        c.. Also I  see big vertical lines in many pages.  I assume these
lines may correspond to the  borders for the pictures.I can get rid of them
by just placing the mouse on them and the cursor becomes a 4 pointed
arrow.Then I hit delete key. But there are very small vertical lines that do
not get deleted.  Can I do any global replace. If so what are the key words
used?
        d.. I have not seen braille books that use columns. Are braille
books available in columns? This is only for my information.
      Many Many thanks for your time and patience. devi
