<p class="MsoNormal">I'd like to chat with anyone who is currently outsourcing document conversion (as in textbook conversion). We utilize as many sources to obtain accessible or near accessible files, but are in the process of looking at a variety of options
when files are obtained (or a book has to be scanned) and remediation is needed. <o:p></o:p></p>
