Hi Jamie.
(lol) As I don't knit, sew, croché or whatever that was, I'm not sure what I'm
reading. But, I think it looked fine.
I am inserting a .txt reproduction of what Kurzweil 1000 found when it read
your page. That way you can check to see if the k1000 user saw what you thought
they should. I don't have openbook, but I'm almost sure the results would be
the same.
You are very courageous for scanning this.
Bob

Pratik, I attached a page I just scanned that had two columns. When I tested
replacing the ^n (column break) with ^p it looked just like one solid page
without a column to me.
When I scan an uncooperative table of contents as a table I convert it to
text and it looks just like text. I don't leave it as a table; I just scan it
as a table so it will behave.
I would not recommend scanning a table of contents as columns because they
won't line up, at least not the way my columns scan. It would be like:
Chapter 1
Chapter 2
Chapter 3
page 4
page 10
page 15
And that would not be useful.
