Thanks, Gerald. I wrote to John. I didn't think about the "re-submitting" thing for any credit. I can see where that could get real confusiing real fast. I told John I'd offer to convert and send to him or someone who could just place the book I converted from .ARK to .RTF back on the Step 1 page. If that can help. Meanwhile, I'll try and get to a book every week or two if I can. But the several I have done have taken me into using time I just don't have right now. Although I would like to do more. Thanks.

In any case, this sounds more like a policy issue, and it would be more appropriate to ask the staff if this is acceptable. Perhaps you should ask John Glass, the Customer Support Manager.

But I don't really consider myself yet much of a validator either by skill or with enough time to do all of them. I know there are a lot of .ARK files on Step 1 page. I was wondering... Would it be of any use if I would download a bunch of them, 1 at a time of course, and then re-submit them up in the Rich Text Format? I'd be happy to do at least some of these, if is acceptable or someone can suggest how I might best do it.
