I've got a photocopy I could scan -- what format, and where do you
want it?


Best,
James Arthur


Dunno. I scanned it @ 600 DPI, in Wang-viewer compatible
LZW-compressed .TIFF (the viewer, Start->Accessories->Imaging, comes
standard with Win98). It's kind of large -- isn't 3.5MB a little
inconsiderate, even on a.b.s.e.?

I could certainly e-mail it to anyone interested, and am open to
posting ideas.


See if it gets any smaller reduced to grey-scale and converted to jpg.
If it's less than 1 meg it's OK.

- YD.


It's already in 1-bit-per-pixel format, and compressed about 6:1.
Only 6 pages, the file's big because of the scanning resolution, which
was needed to capture tiny characters used in some equations.

I've not found any benefit to using grayscale for .JPGs of documents
-- the files are often actually larger, and not as clear. Also, we
need a multipage format.

I can send you the PaperPort .MAX file if you'd like -- 1.6MB -- or a
300dpi scan, but the latter is not guaranteed to be clear.

Best,
James Arthur



Okay all, I've re-scanned at 300dpi, and can offer:
1) 600dpi scan, .TIF, 3.5MB ==> 5MB e-mail attachment. Quality =
good.
2) 300dpi scan, .TIF, 1.2MB ==> 2MB(?) e-mail attachment. Quality =
fair.
3) .ZIP file containing .PNGs of each page, 934KB total, ==> ~1.3MB
e-mail. Quality=fair.

Hi, James -

I would very much appreciate a 600 dpi copy of that article. Please send it to info at sophisticatedsolutions dot us.

Thank you for your very generous offer.

Sincerely,
John


I made a mistake in my email address. It is corrected above.

Sorry.
