Hi Jim, Illustrations should be removed. We unfortunately cannot process books with images at this time, though it is something we are working towards. You should delete them. If any have captions included in the image itself, the captions should be retyped and placed in brackets. Section breaks are fine, and our converter handles them exactly the same as page breaks. You do not need to worry about converting them to page breaks. Please let me know if you still have questions about this book. To post to the discussion list, simply send an email to bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx As for Poet, we are currently not giving out book ID numbers to individuals. We're actually restructuring the volunteer process at the moment in order to get entire books completed with the highest quality image descriptions. Right now we're only working with groups of people, but I'll let you know when we've figured how to manage the individual volunteers and their work. I apologize that this is taking so long. We are working hard to make sure that this new structure is the most productive and sustainable, so it is taking some time to hash that out.

Hello again. I hope I'm not seeming too out of touch. I have started looking at a book to proof read. I decided, since I don't have any pre-ordained preferences, to work on the books which have been on the list the longest. The book I chose was: Dental Computing and Applications: Advanced Techniques for Clinical Dentistry By Andriani Daskalaki. Two items popped out immediately. First, in general , I noticed, since Word 2003 initially brings the book up in Print view, that there are a large number of illustrations, mostly drawings and photos in this case. My first question is how do I handle these? The drawings don't show in 'normal' mode, but the captions generally do. Second, the book has no page breaks, only various section breaks. Near the top of the book is this sequence: ----------------------- Section break (Next Page) 6 lines of text Column break Multiple lines of text one letter at a time Section break (continuous) -------- If I look at it in print mode, the 6 lines of text is a column and the multiple lines of text resolve themselves into a second column aligned with the 6 lines. When I change the section breaks to page breaks and remove the column break and try to re-arrange the text from the two columns, I can't save the document successfully. Word gives me a warning about breaking up columns and the resulting saved document is corrupt. Does this make the book rejectable? Should I put this question out the the discussion group? How exactly do I do that? I've been getting the digest, but I'm not sure how to submit. Also, I still do not see anything on the POET website which allows me to find books to work on.
