Re: "Obviously the value would be greatly enhanced if we could knock up an
index (document title or part number, where it starts, where it ends) and
better yet if individual docs could be pulled out into separate pdfs."
All of this is fairly easy if you have full-version Adobe Acrobat. I'm not
saying it's not time consuming, but it's far less difficult than many people
(who have never used full-version Acrobat, but have only used the reader)
would suspect.
I MIGHT do it if I get access to the files. Downloading 1,000 jpegs will
probably take a lot more time than consolidating them into a PDF file, which
can then be fairly indexed.
