How do I report minor errors or make corrections?
I've downloaded an eBook in .lrf format and have found several minor errors. How should I report these, or is there an easy way for me to make corrections?

did you download the book from mobileread ? if yes, you could send a pm to the book creator or post a message in the book thread. i don't think you can easily correct and lrf file without having the sourcefile.

eg. On page 5, in medium font, the word "for" should be "from". (This is just a hypothetical error. Would this be sufficient enough information to report to the originator?) WDE. Last edited by Wetdogeared; 05-06-2009 at 12:32 PM. |

In chapter 5: "they hid for their parents" should be "they hid from their parents". |

Note that the book creator should have the sources, and it would be quite easy for him/her to just search the text to find any sentence you provide, so giving the exact location of the typo is not as important as giving enough context.
