Bob and all,
I've taken the liberty of OCR'ing those documents and combined them
into a single bookmarked PDF. It's about 9 times smaller, is now able
to be searched, text is much more readable. I've tried to keep OCR
errors to a minimum, all ~100 pages were hand-proofread and
machine-spell-checked. I'm sure I missed a few errors, and there's
likely to be very minor formatting issues here or there, but overall I
think the quality is pretty good.

Thanks again.

P.S. Is
mbiusa.com on crack for selling these Brikon 723's for $800
and a COPY of the manual for $100?
I bought mine from a dovebid auction for $20 or so with the adapters,
manual, and printer.
What OCR program did you use? I bought a Fujitsu duplex scanner off of
Craigslist for $10 which I used
to scan the manuals. The only output format it supports is the pdf one
which I believe is just converted tiff images.
It's supposed to save as tif, jpg, etc but all of those options are
grayed out and cannot be selected. Your OCR
of the files makes the scanner much more usable.
