If you scan and save the files as TIF's they will be very large no matter what the resolution is.. choose jpg or jpeg

What are the guidelines for scanning manuals for the RB site? I want to scan & upload the manuals for the MSR 2000, but they are HUGE... Tried doing the VHF manual today at 200 dpi, and even choosing Acrobat's "reduced file size" option, it came out to 101 MB!!! (the UHF and Audio/Control manuals are coming any day) I presume they should be scanned in B&W, not greyscale or color (unless needed for images/PC board layouts...), but at what resolution? And Kevin or Mike, can you send me the ftp instructions again? I seem to have lost them........ .. George, KA3HSW / WQGJ413
