Kaypro docs...

I scanned my ampro littleboard docs, but then I removed them when I found they were already online. Howard Harte has some stuff here: http://www.hartetechnologies.com/manuals/Ampro/ Check and scan what he doesn't already have. Of course, if you are so inclined, scan everything you have. But if you are going to triage, scan things that aren't online. H89 ROM listings are already online, but they are behind a password at http://www.sebhc.org/. Having copies freely available would benefit more people. I have used a nice high speed copier/scanner at work that can spit out tif files or ready-to-go pdf files. There is a word of caution though. The machine is set up to have a very high quality dithering algorithm in order to get the visually most appealing results. This is different than the simple threshold quantifier that you get from most scanners when you ask for B&W scans. When you zoom in close to the text, the edges will have a feathered appearance as the copier is trying to approximate partial pixel coverage. It looks good, but hurts compression and doesn't do anything helpful for OCR.
