I did ignore all the unknown proper names and garbage. I had a Lot of garbage on my scan of this book and I was wondering, having had 2 bad scans in a row, whether my scanner was having some kind of focus problem.
Thanks...PS, I'll try non caps rank spelling just for the heck of it. Haven't removed headings yet.

Gary, I validated that book, and the errors I got in rank spelling were mostly proper names. In fact, I had to ignore around 400 proper names just to spell check the rest of the book. In this case, I think the rank spelling percentages would be wrong unless you went in and ignored those words. I spent several hours editing the book and removing headers. Monica Willyard Shelley L.

I have to wonder, what happened to the book from my desk to Bookshare, as most of what I glanced at read great. Shelley L.

I just took a look at this book for curiosity's sake and found it ahorrible scan never exceeding 99.6 and much often lower. After I went through the book with rank spelling, I still had 455 errors.
