Re: Old catalogues -- worth keeping?
I often scan stuff, and where appropriate, follow that with OCR to get just the text rather than multi-megabyte storage problems. When my wireless scanner refused to connect recently, I used the webcam. So far I have not attempted OCR off a photo. A properly mounted camera above a thick book would get around the problem encountered with flatbed scanners.
What I most need to conquer is reading my micro fiche, I have hundreds of Grundig and NordMende fiche plus quite a few Ducati spares boos.
Les.
