[Blindtlk] storage and retrieval in open book

hi,

it is a bit tricky at first.
files are saved in the openbook library folder structure and not your 'my 
documents' without modifying the settings or manually navigating to 'my 
docs' when you save a file.
i'm not completely sure what is lost but i often save a scan as a word .doc 
format and it seems fine.
