I didn't do inventory this year, but I usually scan my books into a Word
document and then upload the file. Normally I let the document get to be 4
-5 pages long before I save and upload. I cannot remember if I saved the
file as a word file or as a text file. After I upload the file I go to job
manager and check for errors. I find this works much more quickly than
scanning directly into Destiny.
