Amber,
No sweat. I can rescan the missing page if I find out what page I thought was
missing and the rest of the scan is great so I won't worry about it. I can use
both WordPerfect and Kurzweil and send the final form up rtf so there's no
problem. I don't remember what if any page I found missing but WordPerfect has
been doing it's usual job of adding blank pages and removing page breaks but I
found out from someone (you?) how to add the page break in Kurzweil and it is
easier to remove the extra blank pages there as well. I find I had been going
back and forth but WP multiplied copies of the book and it still converts them
to "Read Only" so I keep having to change the name to have it accept the
changes and it becomes the height of absurdity with all the files multiplying
like rabbits and I have to keep opening them from the documents page to see
when I open it and find a read only file I can go back to documents and know
which one to delete.
If that last paragraph you can see why I want to work in Kurzweil and will
until I need something I cannot do and then I work in WP but in its word
compatibility mode [?].
Anyway, I will finish it and send it along to Bookshare and I thank you. You
even have part 4 of "The Bear" in good shape. It is that section that pulls
all of the stories together and makes it a novel. I will have to find a way to
get a copy of my Compson Geneology to you. It has twice as many names and other
information on it and I am still adding to it. One look at it and the whole of
Go Down, Moses is clear as a novel and you see the missing characters - black
and white - in the family that are in other books.
This was the heart of the dissertation I was working on so you can see why I
wanted to make sure I got it right and was so happy with the scan. I can put in
anything missing as soon as I figure out what I thought was missing. I have a
clean copy of the book here somewhere or can get one from the library. My
original copy has writing on almost every page and in up to 5 colors.
Thanks again for everything.
Amy

Amy:
I scanned it but you said I needed a page. I couldn't get the book back so I
couldn't replace the page.
