hi guys ive got 2 ta22 celica manuals and since a few ppl want them i had the idea to scan them an make themavailable to all toymodders. problem is it will take me a while to do so and the file might be pretty big cos im no computer genius but im told that if someone has adobe acrobat(the whole program not just the reader) then they could do it easily... anyone willing to take up the challenge?

It will still take some time as you have to scan each page and then append it all together in a single pdf file. The time consuming part will be doing all the scans.

Is the book bound or just loose pages ?
Some scanners are able to get sheet feeding attachments so you can scan whole books with the single click of a button.
Probably your easiest option.
I have the full Acrobat package, but you are still left with scanning the whole thing, which will take much longer than any other part of the process.

hi guys
the book is half bound half loose pages 
whats a pdf file? i should know this! it sounds like a photoshop term but that doesnt sound right. i know it will take a while but im worried about the size of the file what would be the best way to do it should i use ocr?
i was thinkin that maybe someone who knows more about this would borrow the books and do the whole thing 
but i will give it a go if you think i should

(in an obi-wan voice)
you dont want a TA22
you WANT the ma61/70. you want to feel the force of the turboes... FLOW through you.
plus they're dead sexy, and fit 1jz/2jz/7m/1uz in them easily

), so I would be interested in it if It ever got compiled together. I got photoshop, let us know if you want a hand with it.
