Makes sense. Still it's uncompressed so pretty big. I'll need to work on cleaning
up the scans a bit, then I'll put the Tiffs up for download/whatever. Just don't
want a lot of copies, consider that pdf as a proof of concept to review.
TIFF supports compression, in a number of different schemes. LZW tends to work well for
gray and RGB; the CCITT schemes are for bitonal (black/white bitmap). All TIFF
compressions are lossless so they are all safe for material of all types.
Is what you posted the whole document you have, or are there others? I was really hoping
for the "CT bus manual". I did see interesting stuff in this one, though; for
example, the first documentation I've seen of the hard drive FORMAT command.
