Several books, each 300 +/- pages, have been scanned into individual
Word 2003 .rtf documents. Each .rtf document consists of one text box
that contains the text of each scanned page. The individual .rtf pages
of each book need to be sequentially compiled into the book that they
comprise.
It seems that the text within each text box has to be manually selected
and copied, then pasted into a blank .rtf document in Word 2003 in
order to be inserted as a subdocument within a master document.
However, I've looked at the problem of compiling master/sub documents
using Word 2003. The problems appear to be substantial ones, the
potential for file corruption in particular.
As planned, the documents, when compiled, should serve as a resource --
like a 'lookup' or dictionary.
Using Word 2003, has anyone here had success with this? If so, what is
the best strategy for this?
