I work in digital imaging for part of my living, and do work for a
number of
archival projects as well.
600dpi@1bpp is insane. 300dpi is usually fine, if there is a prob
increase the
image depth.

This topic has gone over the list a few times, from experience, the
"best"
scans are 600 DPI black and white compressed into PDF files. This

exactly what is needed, get the data without a lot of excess. The
KA655 TM
that is on the DFWCUG site appears from the PDF to be 100 DPI/8 bit
(note
that's 800 bits per inch net and the result is harder to read) I'll
add
scanning this manual to my list. They don't appear to have come up
with a
'standard' for their scans. That would help too.
