Well, I've copied the whole manual to my computer, about 540 pages. Now the files are too large to post. I've broken it down to 4 files with 5 chapters in each and placed them in zip files, still too large. Any ideas? I don't want to overload the site. I may try on Home Foundry to see how large a file I can post there. Or just ask DavidF.

What format/settings did you scan the pages at? There may be a way to save for web posting somewhere...

I don't know much about the different formats. I used jpeg, I guess it was the default. The quality is very good and I can blow it up huge. I noticed when I put a page online, the quality isn't very good. I sure don't want to do it again, I was ready to quit halfway through.

Good idea Dallen, I may try a few things first but I'll keep that in mind.

Give me a week or so. I may be able to take these files and turn it all into a PDF for everyone...

Apparently can't upload PDF files here. If I get it all into a single, multi page PDF, I will post a link here...
