Review of Publisher's final E-file

Here it is in my inbox: the final file for the printer. Review it carefully.

I immediately sent of a copy to my proof reader and she immediately found a misspelling on the back cover. Yes! How awful to misspell the name of California's own literary genius: John Steinbeck. The editor was bold in comparing my novel to that of the great Steinbeck. How great was that? Please! You guys! Would you stop misspelling his name? It was correct on my AVR copy and on the final back cover submission. How do those gremlins invade? They do and that is why help from my proof reader, a document supervisor for a hi-tech company in San Diego, is so necessary. I completely missed this error in my reading already. Open your eyes! There will be more errors scattered through out the four hundred plus pages. We have to find them.

I was correctly warned by another author concerning errors in the final file that didn't pop up before. That's life in the publishing world. This is the last step in preparing the final manuscript for the publisher. We want the initial inventory to be clean. But, since life is sometimes unfair, any errors we don't catch now will have to wait for the second batch.
