that way you save some time correcting a same error over and over again.
When you're lucky you can 'correct' like 100 words in the book (for an author using the same words often). Unlucky,and all the effort gave you only 1 replace.
After a while you get used to it, and know which words are best to replace.
Same goes for manually correcting an OCR-ed text.
After word is finished, save it as html,and import it into Book Designer; or directly convert it with Calibre,or other program.
I noted my book software can not distinguish between titles, and subtitles.
So I prefer doing the formatting myself in BD when possible.
