Hi, Rebecca. The fact is, if you don't read the book while validating,
there's no real way to make sure you get everything. There are some things a
spell check won't pick up because maybe they're real words but they didn't
scan properly in that case. The best thing to do is to use Kurzweil's ranked
spelling to get an idea of how good the book is. If it already appears to be
in good condition and you don't want to read the book completely through,
maybe just doing a spell check and fixing what you know should be fixed,
checking the copyright and making sure nothing is missing from the content
of the book is good enough. If there seems to be a lot of errors and it's
not one you're really interested in, maybe release it and choose another
one. That's why I think when you're first starting to validate, choosing
something that sounds like something you'd like to read, anyway, is a good
way to start. Take care.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] validation question
hi all. I was reading the instructions tonight and it said that a person
was not required to read the book if they didn't want to in order to
validate. If you don't read the book how can one be sure to know whether
it's a pretty cleans? I found excellent ratings but yet there are weird
characters in the books. Also how do you know which characters to remove
and which to keep in? I find there's also a lot of numbers before the
copyright. Any ideas would be appreciated. Also what's the fastest way to
edit a book? I have kurzweil and word.
