I don't remember what bookshare recommended (I think it was something like 18 points). However, I can tell you my experience as a proofreader.
I usually standardize the document at 12-points. Then I put chapter headings at 14-points. If there are parts or books in a book (i.e. part 1, book 1), or in the case of Charles Dickens Stave 1, then I put them in 16-points.
Hope that helps. Bob----- Original Message ----- From: "Soronel Haetir" <soronel.haetir@xxxxxxxxx>

The rtf I got through the checkout process won't work? On 8/3/09, E. <thoth93@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:You need to have bookshare staff give you the rtf of the book. You will not be able to submit a downloaded copy from the collection which you have fixed up because page numbering will be lost. Please save yourself the work by asking Carrie for a copy you can work on. She will put the rtf on the check in list with "hold for" and your name if you ask her to do so.

I've seen references to changing the font sizes on the text that should trigger such headers but am worried if I do that the pagination will break. Due to that concern I haven't actually tried yet. Does anyone know what the exact requirements of the conversion tool are? The guide isn't particularly helpful on this area. -- Soronel Haetir soronel.haetir@xxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe from this list send a blank Email to bksvol-discuss-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx put the word 'unsubscribe' by itself in the subject line.
