And to go one step further... recommendations for what hardware people use for scanning? I am thinking about undertaking some manual archiving. Mostly so I can get rid of manuals that I no longer need, but might want to reference once again some day in the future. I was thinking of using an old HP OfficeJet all in one Fax/Scanner/Printer for the task. I figured that way I could drop a dozen pages on it at a time. I don't have a sheet feeder for any of my flatbed scanners. Would something like this work for the task? Or am I better off locating a cheap used sheet feeder for a flat bed scanner. In the long run I figure I will save to PDF... but with how cheap CDs are, I will most likely keep the interm scanned image as well, and just make the PDF more for easy quick access to the pages. -chris <http://www.mythtech.net>
