I am working on validating a book which obviously been scanned. The scan is
excellent with only a few errors. It is the entire text of the print book.
However, there are no page numbers. Am I suppose to reject the book because
there are no page numbers even though everything else is present?

Sorry,  there must be a 1 to 1 match between printed pages and etext pages.
If pages are missing they should be integrated.  If there are duplicate
pages extra copy must be removed.   
If it is clear there is no 1 to 1 page correspondence,  at least for the
body-text after all front matter, and nothing can be done about it,  the
book should be trashed. 

Let's keep quality up, folks!

Hi, Rachael!  The main thing is to make sure that all of the text is there.
If yyou have access to the book, you can re-scan pages to make the numbers
match up if you want to.  Take care!

In general you should scan with column recognition turned off and
two-pages-per-scan turned on.  It may be faster to rescan the table of
contents than to fix it.

[bksvol-discuss] contents in columns?

 


 

 





hello, i've only validated until now but thought i'd try a bit of scanning.
The table of contents is in two columns, do I leave the information this way
or do I put it on separate pages so it flows numerically?
Ex:
chapter 1        chapter 5
1-1                 5-1
1-2                 5-2
etc                  etc

OR

chapter 1
1-1
1-2
etc
chapter 2
etc
chapter 3
.
.
chapter 5
5-1
5-2
etc


Thank You
Rachel
