Thanks, I didn't know this at all!  I'll definitely keep it in mind for the
future, though.

I fiddled around with the document last night, and Mark fiddled w it some
more today.  We tried all kinds of stuff, with no luck, except for making
the pages huge, as Mayrie suggested.. Until Mark suggested rerecognizing the
pages with another scanner engine.  I did this, and came out with the
correct number of pages minus the extra page breaks, even after converting
it and looking at it with Word.  Now, unfortunately, it has a boatload of
scanner junk characters which I feel compelled to take out, plus do other
stuff, before resubmitting it to step one.

Ah, technology!

Hi Cait,

You may already know this so sorry if I'm telling you about something you've

already tried.

You can make the font in a Word document uniform by highlighting the entire 
document with a control a. Use you menu key and go to format. Arrow down to 
font. There you can choose font style, type and size. Tab over to okay and 
save the changes. That should eliminate many extra pages if the font sizes 
are different throughout the document.

HTH

Blessings.

Hmm.. Ok, I'll try that.

Incidentally, my husband, Mark, who is much more savvy with Word then I, is
trying to help me with this.   He discovered that the fonts are all mixed
up, and that doesn't of course, show up when you're reading with K1000,
unless you check.  He actually checked when using Word, and some lines only
had one or two words on them because of big fonts, etc.

I'll try the paper size deal and see what happens.

Hi Cait!

Try increasing the paper size even more.  Use "custom" then you can put
something huge like 22 in the page length in inches.  I'll bet that fixes
it.

Good luck!

Ok, I went ahead and changed the paper size in Word from letter to Legal, as
Christina suggested.  That took the document from 553 pages down to 467
pages.. Any other suggestions?  In /through all this, Kersi is still adament
that the same document is 353 pages.
