I am beginning to proofread a book entitled Communicating for Productive and
Fulfilling Relationships .
The scan looks pretty clean, but I do have some questions. There are no page
breaks or section breaks in the entire document. However, at various places
throughout the text there is a dotted line that goes clear across the page.
It is not a page break, nor a section break. This is when I open it in
Microsoft Word (2003). When I opened it in Open Office Writer, the lines
disappear. Cut-and-paste removes some of the lines, but not all. I am
attaching a short RTF document that illustrates what I am talking about.
Since I am sighted, I do not have a good screen reader to see how it's
interpreted by that.
Also, a number of examples are given in the book. Usually they are in
italics, but with the occasional words in normal type. These words do not
appear to be normal type for purposes of emphasis. I am presuming I should
convert the entire piece of text to italics.
Finally, if someone has a good, simple screen reader to read the contents of
a Word or RTF document, I would appreciate a suggestion. Thanks all.
John
