I'm not sure if just replacing ^n with ^p will do what I am talking about. 
Maybe it will, but I am doubtful. I am referring to the arrangement of the 
print on the page. When I say "decolomnize", I mean that the second column 
needs to be below the first and third below the second, if there is a third. 
That's the only way I know of to ensure that the brille or voice reader of the 
Bookshare version won't get mixed up text. Unless the Bookshare tools do this 
while processing the books? Anyone out there know? I've never done this 
rearranging myself, as I have my scanner - K1000, and before that OpenBook - 
take care of the decolomnizing while doing the OCR, and I haven't so far 
validated a book with columns still in it.

  Thanks, Evan. I will remember in the future to change all ^n to ^p then. I 
assume Lissi fixed the columns in the Wild Irish Roses book because she would 
probably have known.
