Because of scouting throughout the internet and getting suggestions which are not helpful, I believed my entire life was gone. Being alive minus the approaches to the problems you have sorted out by way of your good write-up is a serious case, and the ones that would have in a wrong way affected my entire career if I had not discovered your website. The training and kindness in handling almost everything was excellent. I’m not sure what I would have done if I had not discovered such a stuff like this. I am able to at this time relish my future. Thank you very much for your impressive and amazing help. I won’t hesitate to endorse your blog to any person who would like assistance about this situation.

Indeed, it is for this purpose I have logged dozens of hours standing in front of the various PDF scanners in the libraries here at Harvard that I wrote about here. […]

It can save the images as PDF though I don’t remember what other formats it uses.

Would you like to share the price of the machine and the make? I have seen something like a printer and scanner combined but ws looking for a scanner only which can save the images in tiff format and PDF. Is this machine like that?
Thanks and regards
Jay

Excellent idea – I suffer from the excess baggage process
What hardware and software is this and how much did it cost?
Thanx

I myself often have to trudge through the library in search of old journal articles that aren’t available online. These days most math/science/engineering journals have the past 10 years or so available online as a PDF, but if you want anything earlier you have to trudge to the library, find it, check it out, bring it back to my building (since I have photocopies charged to my research account, but only in my own building) and then take the book back. If I could just scan them as PDF’s (and better yet with OCR!) right in the library would be excellent. However, I have yet to see these machines at UT Austin, or at least not in the Engineering, Chemistry, and Math/Physics/Astronomy libraries.

So even if the machine cannot save the document to a USB drive or FTP you might be able to get it by e-mail.
