OCRing is difficult for the Oxford Book of English Verse with it's odd spellings
and many footnotes with small type. I also want to preserve the look of
old books - typefaces, etc.
I ran the 19 MB version of the Book of English Verse through Acrobat's
distiller to produce a PDF 1.4 version which is 17 MB. The page turn
time is improved to 4 or 5 seconds - slow but acceptable - actually
I'm pleased with the way the book looks.
Still can't get the battery charged on my Iliad - the charge led goes on
for a second or so when the power adapter is plugged in but then goes
off.
