New scans: 4 German ebooks ready
I scanned four chemistry books and made PDF-ebooks of them. All books are 600 dpi high resolution scans. Features like correct site-numbers,
silx-compression, OCR under the picture (=> for fulltext-searching) and constant page-sizes are available in all of them. Here some
details:[color=darkgreen]'Syntheseplanung in der Organischen Chemie' by Christine L. and Martin Willis; 99
pages; 1.7 MB
'Organische Retrosynthese' by S. Warren; 293 pages; 3.3 MB
'Einführung in das anorganisch-chemische Praktikum' by Jander and Blasius (just the quantitative analysis part); 226 pages; 4.4 MB
'Experimentieranleitung C4000' Kosmos; 183 pages; 10.4 MB
[/color](Some time ago, I also scanned 66 pages from 'Der Kosmos-Kakteenführer' by Erik Haustein. You can also get this
file.)
You can get the books by downloading them from axehandle's ftp (/upload/Mephisto) or by signing up a free account at www.streamload.com and PM me your account-name (not the password).
It would be nice, if users who are running a file-sharing program (like emule etc.) could share the books (release-setting) for some days. By this,
the books should be constantly available on the ed2k-system (or kazaa or whatever).
Have fun!

Awesome!
I did some scanning on the Jander Blasius Book myself, and covered about the first 150 pages - which I lost in my harddrive crash.
Anyway, great stuff! Can I ask you , how long did each book take, to scan and process?
PS did you upload 'der Kakteenfuehrer' onto the FTP too? I can't check here unfortunately, I need to wait until the connection at home
is set up again.

> Can I ask you , how long did each book take, to scan and process?
The Kosmos-ebook was a test for an automatic scan by such a fax+printer+scanner machine. It has done its work fast, but it can only scan batches of
single pages, so it's impossible to scan bound books without unbound/destroy them. The other books were scanned manual. This takes quite a long
time, but you had only to change the page and press a key, so you can do another things meantime (watching TV, read, listen music etc.).
> PS did you upload 'der Kakteenfuehrer' onto the FTP too?
Yes.
If someone is interested, I can also upload the 'Pschyrembel (Klinisches Wörterbuch)' on cd.
