And it is not the cheapest software... Tragedy. Any other suggestions? ;-)
If you ask for ideas... ;-)
Thanks :-P
O:-)
Personally, I consider PDF a very bad format for scanned documents; I prefer "dejavu", which is designed for that very purpose. It is, however, not popular. There is open software to create the files, and text can be added although I've never tried. However, the available opensource is, let's say, fully functional but clumsy. There is proprietary software that is, they claim, much easier to use.
I'm not author of those PDFs. I use scanned old books from sources like http://biodiversitylibrary.org/ or http://bibdigital.rjb.csic.es/ or even Google Groups or so. Often they already passed through OCR. Sometimes not. And then it is very very useful...
Yep. Some libraries also provide djvu files, a few only djvu. Most png/jpg, or pdf. Some use flash!
However, OS can be easily scripted...
Yes, convert all my thousands PDFs into dejavu and go on... ;-)
LOL. It could take weeks of cpu. Djvu creation is cpu intensive, display is very fast. I would probably do it, though :-p -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
