Wanted everyone to know that I have updating the Douay-Rheims text on my to-do list.
My source text has a few errors, but it appears that all the online versions have the same. For example, 2 Machabees 1:10 has "In the year Bone hundred and eighty- eight". It seems someone scanned the text in from a book, with a number of scanner errors, and *everyone* is now using it.
I did find a source that appears to be error free. I'll try to get that out to you soon.
Update 12/10: The source I found isn't the easiest to work with. Does anyone know of an online version of the D-R text that doesn't include the above 2 Machabees error?

Thank you! The second link also has the notes in a easy-to-parse format. That will be useful when I add notes.
