Subj : Copying history To : CHARLES SCAGLIONE From : JEAN PARROT Date : Sun Sep 25 2005 12:01 pm Hello Charles, we were saying ! CS> Nowadays when digitizing books a special compression algorithm is CS> used. I have a library of digitized books - mostly Bibles and other CS> Christian works. Some of the books are over 1200 pages in length but CS> the digitized file is around 17 mb. Quite amazing. I never knew this. But, as I did mine in Word-2000, the .doc does not take too much realestate. I did not compare "weight" after I .pdf'd it either. I fancy that the .pdf is a little more as it adds some transparent control data to the end product. Again in Kamouraska ! Have a great day ! ___ Blue Wave/DOS v2.30 --- Platinum Xpress/Win/WINServer v3.0pr5 * Origin: Try Our Web Based QWK: DOCSPLACE.ORG (1:123/140) .
