Not yet, and several comments (both on the list
and in private email) expressed concerns about
the quality of the resulting scan from the microfiche.
Glenn Little WB4UIV pretty well summarized all of them
when he said:
% I also have the LBI library on microfiche. I have
% copied some at the library onto paper, but the
% quality is not real good. I suspect that the
% microfiche is not going to produce great PDF files,
% but much better than nothing.
That's the key phrase - it's not going to be good, but
it's better than nothing.
% My set is also available for reproduction to PDF.
% I have been looking for more than a year now for
% a scanner that has the resolution to scan the
% microfiche, but have had no luck. When I attempted
% to scan one at 2400 dpi optical as if it were a negative,
% the results were almost unreadable.
If you have a method to scan the fiche and produce a
usable result, please go ahead. Glen has offered his
fiche as a source, go you two can chat directly.
Anything you come up with will find a home on the LBI page.
Contact me for a "wish list" of LBIs.
And thank you for stepping up to the plate.
