Best way to scan manuals

Pages: (1/4) > >>

JoshF:

I've tested out scanning the cover of a manual with my EPSON Perfection V600.  The scan quality is great, but I imagine it being a hassle to have every page, back and front, aligned properly.  I was thinking about getting a double-sided document scanner, like the Fujitsu ScanSnap s1300i.  I'd rather go straight into the touch-up than spend an hour fiddling around with finding the right angle for every page. Do you think this would help?



noemann:

product not suited for game manuals for various reasons.

slick referral string too, I might add. Here's a better link:
http://www.amazon.com/Fujitsu-ScanSnap-S1300i-Document-Scanner/dp/B008HBFADQ

skip the seller sites; head straight to the manufacturer's page:

yawn. A good flat-bed scanner and some heavy books will work well.
Arseen is very good at scanning manuals.  ;)


JoshF:

I don't know what's slick about pasting the address that was in my address bar, but I updated the link.  I have a good flat bed scanner, but I don't know how to efficiently align 20 sheets.  I'll post a preview and you guys can tell me if it's good enough.

wiggy:

You'll likely have to align them after scanning. I'd pull the manuals apart as well (if you're not already).
