Denny,

My question is not related to hardware or software. I have access to large format scanners and small format scanners and film positive/negative scanners. Software is readily available.

With regards to the original documents, for example: I do not see how I can scan the the Silver Books that I have without destroying the binding.

I have a large collection of manuals/booklets that would decrease in value if I tried to scan them. Perhaps this is why some people do not scan and post some documentation?

Maybe someone who scanned a thick manual/booklet for Keith Hardy has advice?
