hi, taking the books apart is not really a option for me since i will be selling them after the last exam this summer:) I have for the most part always gotten good results with the optic book 3600. However always under windows, though. Not sure why. Annie, as for your missing text have you tried take the scanned result and force it into an html file? I have had too do that with all of my nursing books too make sure that i got all the text
