Greeting Techwr-l's
I am posing this question to all of you out there, hoping that you might be
able to help. The Marketing department has a magazine (hard copy only) and
has lost the soft copy of the manual. Other than scanning each page and
putting them into a large folder, do you know some way to do this correctly?
The soft copy probably will never be needed again but an electronic copy
will be sent out via e-mail and the Web.
I've never dealt with this situation before and was hoping that somebody out
there could point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance.
