Hi Mary, thanks for the suggestions. I agree with you about direct book contact while scanning. I feel like my scans have gotten better since I've started doing that. Tell me about rank spelling, what is that? I've never used it. Also, what scanner brightness do you usually start out with? I usually start at fifty, but am not sure of brightness standards. You mentioned errors in Fine Engine. That's what I usually use. Is the other recognition program better? RTK is it? Thanks in advance. This topic is good so far, I'm totally pumped to do some scanning now, lol. Best, Allison
