I finally have a scanning system setup here for
archiving documents.
Does anyone have a good idea of how to deal with booklets? That is, items
that are printed on 8.5x11 paper, then folded over and stapled. RIght
now, I have been opening the booklet to the center, removing the
paperclip, then cutting the booklet in half down the spine, and scanning
Why cut them in half? When I needed to copy some booklets like this, I
pulled out the staples, then took each sheet and folded it back in half.
I then scanned/copied each side of that, folded it back the other way and
scanned/copied the 2 sides of it in that configuration (this got copies
of all 4 booklet-pages that made up a single sheet). After I'd done all
the pages, I put them back in the right order and put the (original)
staples back in.
Of course you'd ahve to re-shuffle the scans in software to get the pages
in the right order, but I assume this is not hard to do.
