Thanks, Kim, but I am sighted and not eligible to download library books. Tim

Hi,
Tim, I saw those books you mentioned in the Bookshare collection.
Congratulations. It's always a delight to see stuff you worked on ready for
other people to read. It still is delightful to me. Incidentally, if you like
SF, I just finished proofreading a SF anthology which is in the Bookshare
collection. Boy, what a challenge thatwas. Regards from a fellow
proofreader and wishing you much success, Kim Friedman.

Valerie, I am a proofreader. It was a formatting problem. Everything
is okay now. Thanks.

Re: Italics
What you are saying toggles everything on or off, style wise, Tim.
You do not need to release it to download it again. Just go to your
checked out book page and the last column after the books name is RTF and
clicking it will start a new download.
I still think it is probably either a formatting or scanner problem.
Are you the scanner or the proofreader? I am a little confused by
your wording.
I will be gone all day tomorrow, but maybe Mayrie or someone else can walk
you through possible problems and solutions...

Valerie, I highlighted the whole text and clicked on italics and the whole
text became italics. I'm going to release the book and then download it again.
I'm also going to read the manual. (grin) Tim
