I thought that we didn't have to change m dashes to dashes anymore.

Good point Ann.

I am fortunate to have both MsWord 2003 and Kurzweil 1000 to proof with.

I always start with word to do a few things you can't do in Kurzweil like
changing m dashes to dashes. That's when your tip would come in handy.
Kurzweil remembers where I left off so I don't have to.

Oh yes, the first thing I always do is make a new copy of the file so I will
always have a backup.

Thanks.
Bob

Hi all,

Do it now, then you won't forget it.  You can put it in the filename,
or just make sure that it's in the first page of the proofing copy so
you won't forget.  I always make a proofing copy of a Bookshare proof.
That way I've always got the original if I screw up badly enough to
warrant deep sixing the working copy.

Here is a small tip for a Monday morning.  I put a line at the top of
the working copy to remind me what page I stop at after proofing for a
while.  It just says:  at nnnn   whatever number I'm at.  It's really
helpful.   Once I'm done proofing, I just erase the 'at' line.  Makes
it so much easier to use the ctrl-g command in Word to go back to my place.

Ann P.
