Hi,
Based on Omshivaprakash's recommendation, Wikimedians in Kolkata were
convinced about using Fujitsu ScanSnap SV600 after trying a demo.
This has been now bought as part of the GLAM for Kolikata Little Magazine

Shyamal, Omshivaprakash, Dhaval
Thanks for the feedback.

One could also look at using a ssecond-hand Smartphone with 6MP and above
camera to do a decent image capture and then use scantailor for bulk
processing.
Viswa trained many Wikipedians including Jayanta on the use of scantailor
Hi Vishnu, Shyamal
