?I believe Al has specific guidelines for scan settings, resolution, etc for
his PDFs. ?It might be a good idea to find out what those are before doing
any work.

Ok, I'm open to suggestions. ?I have a scanner and can produce PDFs,
but it would be a lot of pages. ?It would also take me some time,
which is fine. ?Honestly, I've gotten so much out of this list and the
discussions that, if I can give something back, that would make me
happy. ?What's the procedure for doing this? ?Do I just give the PDFs
I produce to bitsavers?
Ok, I pulled out my 'black binder'. ?It's a copy of the AT&T Unix PC
Reference Manual, and is for technicians doing component-level
troubleshooting of the AT&T Unix PC logic board. ?It's pretty thick
and contains sections on:
* System Features and Functions
* Logic Board Theory of Operation
* Diagnostics
* Logic Board Test Procedures
* Schematics
* PAL Equations
* Mnemonics
* Expansion Memory Locations
As I said, it's pretty thick... has this been preserved in digital
form somewhere?
?Not that I'm aware of. ?Oh, how I'd love to have a PDF of that! ?I saw
that
manual ~22 years ago but didn't have access to a beefy photocopier.
