Manual suggestion

Pages: (1/1)

Arseen:

I know this is labor intensive suggestion, but could the manuals be scanned and posted in in such manner that they could be printed and stapled to form copy of the original manual.
I mean take the manual apart and then scan them paper by paper.

Sorry my bad English but hopefully someone understands what I mean.

marioxb:

That makes sense to me and I agree. I wanted to make full DVD-case-size manuals for Wii Sports and Link's Crossbow Training (they come in cardboard cases with CD-case-sized manuals in the US).

TheValeman:

And how would this work for thicker manuals with glued covers like the N64 PAL ones that incorporate mulitple languages? Taking a staple out isn't going to work for a lot of manuals.

Besides ... this site is predominantly about preserving the artwork .... covers, inlays, labels etc. While I have submitted a lot of my N64 manuals it really hasn't gone any further as Snowcone is the ONLY person able to add manuals to the site at the present time.

If you really want a manual like that there is nothing stopping you downloading one and extracting the individual jpg's out of it and joining them together to create a printable one like you are asking for. I'd probably start in the middle and work outwards myself in this situation.

True  there are those, but i would settle for US english manuals.
