This is an old revision of the document!


Q: In a book where the original front-matter includes a description of the typefaces used (i.e., "The text in this book uses OpenDyslexic and Minion Pro typefaces."), should this be removed? Or addressed in a "Producer's Note?"

A: Yes, keep the text. We can add a new paragraph after the stated paragraph ("The text in this book uses…") that states something like:

"Producer's Note: The text is this book does not use OpenDyslexic and Minion Pro typefaces. These typefaces are used in the original book."

When submitting the file for conversion to DAISY XML, let us know in the RT ticket that there is a producer's note in the text and we will mark it up with the prodnote optional DAISY style.

Q: If there are phrases used within the text that indicate the motion of turning a page, for example, should we edit them to reflect the digital format? For example, in Rich Man, Poor Man after the book ends, it states "Turn the page to start reading the follow-up to Rich Man, Poor Man" - I was considering changing this to something along the lines of: "Continue reading for the follow-up to Rich Man, Poor Man" - is this the correct thing to do? - Jenn

A: Interesting situation! I would suggest we remove this page entirely from our version of the book.
