Hi, Jana, I'm afraid my post wasn't clear. I didn't mean Anastasia shouldn't submit a picture book but that she shouldn't worry about or try to scan the pictures, if bookshare can't reproduce them. She could just submit the text, unless she has a sighted relative or friend who can desribe the picture to her and she has the patience to type in. If she could get the pictures to scan, as people seem to suggest the new Kurzweill can do, can bookshare retain them? That would be wonderful.
