HarryT - thanks for the suggestion to use larger print size for proofing. I'll try that next time

Doitsu - gutcheck is not really a spell checker, it is more like a context checker. For example a spell checker wouldn't catch 'he' for 'be', but probably gutcheck would find many these out-of-context problems (although perhaps not for 'dock' for 'clock'; also gutcheck looks for extra spaces and many other common errors that spell checkers would ignore. 'Aspell', a spell checker, is a plugin for gutcheck.

Thanks for the info on the calibre plugin for conversion of straight to curly quotes - I used curly quotes for my last upload, and although regex really helped I still had some problems and I don't know if I changed all the initally straights to curlies.
