Hi Jill, Yes, I have noticed a lot of that in large print books. At first I struggled with them but now, like you, I only validate them if I am interested in reading them. Then I correct as I go.

When I scan such a book, I can catch the errors, but when these books are validated, many of these separated words are not caught. If we really want to strive for high quality books, I suggest that the scanner include the information that it is a large print book so that hopefully no one will validate it unless they are willing to read the book. I'd be interested in others' reaction to this suggestion. I'm validating such a book at present but I only validate books I want to read.
