RTF is not a Word Processing Program. It is a file format. I don't know what
all software you can use with it, but it works well with MS Word. I'm thinking
other things work with it, too.

Jamie,
The only problem with submitting a book in kes is that it has to be validated
by someone with kes which means it may be on Step 1 for a long time as more
validators can work with an rtf file than those who have Kurzweil. Even
Kurzweil users can work on rtf files though it is not, as they will tell you,
primarily a word processing program and relies on other such programs - so they
say but when I am scanning in Kurzweil I have not problem correcting the scans
without converting them to rtf or anything else. It is just with rtf files
which I cannot always correct in Kurzweil. I can insert page divisions in the
scanning mode better than in the plain rtf file and my word perfect program
cannot insert blank pages and cannot multiply arbitrarily with kes files even
rtf files in kes. Sounds weird but whatever works.

That's what I thought, too, Mayrie, that the upload from the validator had
to be in RTF, which was why I asked the question about KES having to be
converted to RTF either after scanning or after validating. But Amy says
Bookshare converts KES to html so I don't know. I was just thinking that it
would be better to convert to RTF after scanning so that anything that went
wrong with it could be fixed before the validator uploaded it. After that there
isn't anything anybody can do about problems except rescan the book.
