[Ql-Users] Sinclair QL Printer
I would like to put together a copy of the manual for the Sinclair QL Printer, which I think is a badged Seikosha SP1000A with a QL character set ROM, for the replacement manuals section on my website. I have obtained from somewhere a set of individual PDFs of each page. Unfortunately they are scanned as graphics and also protected, so I can't even combine them into easier to handle groups of pages. Anybody out there got a manual for this printer which I could borrow to rescan, or even better got an unprotected scan of the pages?

Re: [Ql-Users] Sinclair QL Printer
I scanned this manual a few years ago and it was individual images. It might be my version that you have. It is possible to use OCR software to convert the images to text and then put that into a word processor and produce a final output. This will take time and may not be exact as the manual. Using ImageMagick (open source), it is possible to take a number of JPEG images and convert them into a PDF file. The PDF file will be the same size as the JPEG images combined. Meaning, if you have 10 1 MEG JPEG images, the PDF will be 10 megs. Tim Swenson ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
