Hi Carrie,  I'm having some difficulty convincing word to delete the column 
breaks.  Which, symbol or letter are you using, or how are you doing it, 
Please?  Thanks Tom

  Hi Lissi,

  Sure!  Just click on Edit on the MS Word toolbar, then click on Replace, put 
^b in the from field, put ^m in the to field, and hit the button called Replace 
All.  Changes them all in a flash!

  HTH, Carrie

    Dear Carrie,

    If it's practical, would you tell me how you replace section breaks with 
page breaks. I can replace them one at a time, but is there a way to replace 
them all at once?

    Always with love,

    Lissi

      It added 150 page breaks to your book?  Wow.  I also use MS Word to 
convert the section breaks to hard page breaks, but I delete column breaks.  Do 
you delete column breaks?  I've never seen Finereader add section breaks, but 
anythi ng is possible when computers are involved (I wrote software for 25 
years before I retired so I'm allowed to say things like that :-))

      Have you tried Finereader 7?  Does it also add page breaks to your books?

            Hi Carrie, I've tried 8 and found too many section breaks in my 
result.  Does this make sence to you?  I use M S Office Word too convert the 
sec tion breaks to hard page breaks.  On the last book I tried it on I ended up 
with 650 pages in a 500 page book,  Too much time involved removing that mess.  
The reason I'm asking is that I'm trying to up my productivity.  Thanks Tom

        It's ABBYY Finereader.  We have versions 7 and 8 on 2 (of the 4) 
computers in Marissa's office and I prefer version 7.  The quality is 
comparable but 7 seems a lot faster in reading and in saving the pages.

        My 2 cents, Carrie

            Hi Liz,

            Thanks for your offer, but I'd rather scan Cell in-house, if you 
don't mind.  With the high-speed scanner, it only takes a few minutes to scan 
it, and in general, the scans are pretty clean.  So feel free to take the book 
back to the library.

            Hope you're having a good week!  Carrie

              Hi C arrie: 

              I was just wondering if you wanted me to rescan Cell by Stephen 
King?  A copy is already up on Bookshare, but I don't think it has page breaks. 
 If you want me to rescan, let me know, or if not, I'll take the book back to 
the library. 

              Thanks, and take care,
