I tend to put rescan in parens on the top of the pages that I find really bad in books I scan. It is extremely unlikely that that word would ever appear in a book. <g> I used to use stars in front of words that were badly garbled so I could get a sighted assistant to tell me what the mess was supposed to be. Of course that only worked if the book didn't have stars for footnotes. Now I think I might switch to a carot, because I have never found one of those in a scan unless it was just part of the garbage. It is great to find everything that needs fixing just by going through the document with f3, and editing doesn't have to distract you from your enjoyment of reading while you can't do anything about the mess. I also use QQQ for my reading place marker, but of course that isn't necessary in kes files, since they retain your place. I am pretty sure i have never submitted anything with my editing markup in it, but if anyone ever finds such stuff they will know what happened. :-) Sarah Van Oosterwijck curious entity at earthlink dot net ----- Original Message ----- From: "Shelley L.
