Nope, not writing it from scratch.

I have a very complicated manual, it is cross-referenced to no end. It is extremely structured, hence very terse in its prose.

A typical sentence will read something like; "This pertains to 1-L-0-B, 2-A-D-1 and components 7-E-3 as well as 7-E-4.
Then off course you have to look up all those references in order to figure out what the whole thing is all about.

So, having purchased a Kindle 2i it just struck me that this particular book would be sooo much easier to handle as E-book. Hence, I'm thinking of scanning it and make it into a MOBI file. Is there some software out there that lets me create all the cross-referencing with a fair amount of ease? (I've done it in Word and it is a tedious process).

Would a project like this violate copyrights? (I'm not going to sell copies of i content is way too esoteric) Any help and advice you can offer would be most welcome.
