preserving / ressurecting old docs?

If you've handled these old DEC handbooks, you'd see the cracking, yellowed pages and the perfect binding turning to dust. The idea is you carefully remove the leaves from the remaining binding so you can line them up nicely on a scanner/photocopier and then put them back in order in a baggie so you still have the original paper for ultimate reference/new scanning technologies, but you also have a high-quality digital copy that can be printed, archived, shared, etc. All this is moot if you don't scan at a resolution that approaches that of the printing device, of course. -ethan ===== Visit "The Seventh Continent" http://penguincentral.com/penguincentral.html __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
