Our chief problem with scanning typewritten finding aids for OCR stemmed =
from a bad habit: using a selectric 10 cpi ball at 12 cpi.  I never did =
like that look, but my boss did, and Omnipage hates it.

I doubt anyone is typing finding aids now, so this is probably only useful =
as a rueful look back ....though on second thought, I often say our laser =
printed finding aids are the final backup against the failure of all =
computers, so perhaps we should consider how well our present output =
OCR's.
