Hi Everyone,

One tool that we can all utilize is the "book quality report". If it turns 
out that the same proofreaders are responsible for the same quality issues, 
maybe that will get some attention. *smile*

Hi, Julia.  I completely agree with you, and that is an excellent
question.  I've seen "BSO" (Better Scan Of) a few times, only a few
times,
but maybe we need a "BPO" (Better Proofread Of) designation?

We can only hope that the members who read a book that got "jiffy
proofed"
and needs TLC clicks on that "Poor Quality" thing available to them.
I think
that's the only chance.
