Hi Robin,
What software are you using for proofreading? There should be an option
to
standardize margins without altering font attributes.
Some of the things that the conversion tool does are to locate page
numbers,
and place them at the top of pages, to remove all tabs except when in a
table, to remove all extra spaces (that is any more than one space
occuring
at a time, and to remove blank lines. There may be more, I just can't
think
of it at the moment.
Hope some of that helps.
Mayrie

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] what the daisy tool does
Hi all,
Is there a summary somwhere of what all the bookshare tool does when it
prepares a book?
I was intrigued to read the emails that said it moves pages numbers to the
top, which is where I try to put them, but my sighted hssband leaves them
at the bottom of pages if that's where they were in the scanned book.
One thing I'm particularly wondering about today is whether the tool
cleans
up the margins. That is, quite often when I put a book into RTF to clean
it
up, the left margin changes sometimes. The best way I've found to clean
that up is to clear formating from that section, but that takes out any
font formatting, too. So, I've just been leaving it as is, hoping that
the
tool cleans it up, but I don't know.
Thanks.
Robin
