Hi
 I think it would be a good idea to collect these ideas and
put together a list of the issues for people to read before
submitting.
 As for OCR's, I help get some OCR'd document together a
while back. We used 3 different OCR's and compared the
results before we did a manual look at the results. Almost
every single mistake was different from one or the other.
The only places we saw much trouble was from mixed fonts,
such a text in pictures. These were relatively easy to spot.
The docs were of good quality though.
Dwight
