Hi Kaari,

I'm very inclined to suggest that you send the Omnipage
file, and the Duxbury DXP file to support@xxxxxxxxxx to see
if they have any suggestions as to how to overcome this
problem.

George.

   Sorry. I should never have mentioned the fractions. I was
trying to point
out that the fairly few math bits that Omnipage has problems
with are very
easy to fix in Scientific Notebook. That is NOT, I repeat,
NOT the problem.
    The problem is the FORMATTING. Somehow SN ends up with a
"new paragraph"
indicator at the end of EVERY line and then sends it to
Duxbury. I don't
want it to do that. For the problem sets in the book, I'm
trying to put each
problem on a new line, and SN treats each one as a new
paragraph, and then
so does Duxbury. I don't want it to do that either.
    I only mentioned Omnipage because I was wondering if
saving the file as
a different type of file in the first place would help. I
now don't think it
would, because whenever I try for a new line in SN, it
automatically indents
it and I can't find anything in the manual or online help
about how to make
it quit doing that. 
    This is getting really frustrating...

If you need to recognize a document with a lot of math, none
of the 
mainstream OCR packages are going to deal with it well.

You'll want to use InftyReader software, along with
InftyEditor. You can 
output LaTeX, which should then load into Duxbury for Nemeth
production.

Staff here have created a list of LaTeX codes/issues that
don't (or at 
least didn't, with the previous version of Duxbury)
