Subject: Error report: Cleasby/Vigfusson, pages b0001 thru b0099 - bold-face missing
Hello,
I checked a sample of the pages in the range listed in the subject, and it seems that they all are systematically without bold-face for entry words listed within an entry, e.g. when listing compounds featuring the main head word as the first part of the compound. Compounds in afar- and all- are examples of this.
Regular head-words (ie the first word in an entry) are normally bold-faced.
The missing bold-face makes it hard to do automatic extraction of such compounds other entry-internal headwords.
I would like to correct some of these pages, but since they are already marked as "corrected", they are not available for further corrections.
Another question:
When are you changing the encoding of the texts to Unicode? It seems that most operating systems and editors now support Unicode in one form or another, and going Unicode shouldn't be a problem anymore:)
