Linearizing PDF scans

[Alexandre Souza]

Hey Dave, I've been digitizing docs for free for years
Is any kind of standard, recomendation, group, mail list, to discuss the
subject?
All pdfs in www.tabalabs.com.br/esquemateca were scanned by me. I'm always
open to critics and suggestions
thanks
Alexandre, PU2SEX
