I have two problems:

I'm scanning an archive and have elected to use jpgs for documents; I
have a problem with A4 documents. I want them to read WYSIWYG but have
problems with the resolution, etc. I've asked in similar groups before
but have had no real help.

Can someone recommend a) a scanner
b) software
c) resolution

I'm currently using HPSolution Centre from PCWORLD re software but as
I said am having problems with this. I'd be happy to get this quality:

http://www.geocities.com/satpalramisguilty/ram_coa_2.html

the scans on this site were done in an Internet Cafe using Adobe
Photoshop but I have no specifications about the scanner.

I have another query, re pdfs. I've just got NOVA pdf a free program.
I have a couple of books to scan but can't do them all in one session.
Does anyone know how I can create a 150 page pdf document preferable
in two or three sittings?

Thanks
