There is a way to produce searchable documents in djvu format. Just send your .ps or .pdf to http://any2djvu.djvuzone.org/ , the Any2DjVu Server, and then download your document as .djvu. The djvu format has many advantages, in particular, it is very compact. A scanned book with 1000 pages (300 dpi) takes about 5 Mb while in .pdf format it takes about 50 Mb. _______________________________________________ Help-glpk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-glpk
