Hi,

Not sure where to post this question -- sorry if this is the wrong place.

I downloaded the ePub version of Doris Stevens' "Jailed for Freedom" from GoogleBooks and converted it to Mobi to read on my Kindle. Great book by the way! About the fight by suffragettes for the right of women to vote and their struggles with Woodrow Wilson. Amazon sells this book in kindle format, but it does not have the photographs that were in the original book. None of the other versions (Gutenberg etc.) has the photos either.

Because the Googlebook version was scanned in, there are mistakes due to the OCR. Is there software I can use to correct the text just for my own use? I own a Mac.

Thank you!
