Hello grpup:
As I say I'm new to submitting books to bookshare.org. This what I'm doing
which takes more time than simply scanning a book. (1) I scan the book by
chapter. (2) I spell check the book in the OCR program. (3) I save as rtf.
(4) I take the document into a word processor whch strips out the bogus
hyphenation words caused by book formating, since these are not needed. (5)
but when I do that I must reinsert the page breaks. (6) I've corrected
formating in reference pages since the OCR messes things up.with references
for some reason. The only drawback I've found with my submssions is when I
take out the "exact" book formating to get ride of the bogus hyphens, the
page headers are placed right above the text. Hence the stripper should not
delete them.
I hope this makes for a very easy validation. If people find that these
steps do not lead to an easy validation, please let me know what else can be
done.
