FR verdict...

alexpgpTaking account of the fact that I failed to use the "recognize table" feature (which I still haven't used... I just noticed it's there), I ended up taking a lot more time to beat the text into shape than I perhaps should have.
The spell check earlier today was a bear, frankly (but then again, the fax quality was noticeably short of excellent, so what are we to expect?), but aside from a load of instances where I was asked to confirm that something was right (and it was), I have not yet found any significant number of errors about which I had not been asked (which would imply that FR was committing true errors with confidence, which it wasn't).
So, in the final analysis, given my experience thus far, I've probably wasted too much time for a 2,100 word project, but it was a learning experience, and I did fail to notice the table feature, which may have saved me a bunch of cut-and-paste operations, not to mention having to unscrew the resulting weird formatting.
I do strange things to wind down, don't I?
* * * Feht is back in town. He called a couple of hours ago and we chewed the fat over the wire for a pretty long time. He promises more news of his trip to California on Saturday, when he's invited us (and Olga Z.) to his place for a 5 pm post-Fourth celebration.
It's well and truly late, and I am feeling a bit bushed.
Cheers...
