So far... the best results I have obtained (in experiments) has
been to *photograph* the pages, then scan the photos... I am using
35mm film, but I would imagine that the newer hi-res digital cameras
would work as well. I will post some of these scanned docs on my
website when I get a Round Tuit.
I use a page-sized piece of 1/2" glass to smooth the page... works
for sheets as well as bound material, then a cheesy copy stand with
some photo-grade lamps. A tripod would work too.
I gave up on the OCR for the reasons set forth in the previous posts.
Cheers
John
