[QUOTE=user;105954]any recommendations about the glass used to flaten the pages? what material, coatings, dimensions, density, thickness?

My glass is about 5 millimeters thick and heavy enough to flatten even creased magazine pages. The size is A4 (210x297) plus 1 cm margin on each side. It is a kind of glass used for glass shelves, nothing special. No anti-glare glass is required with my setup, but possibly with an anti-glare glass you could avoid obscuring the camera with a black paperboard. I have tried a glass from my damaged scanner but it was too light to flatten the pages. Good enough to flatten my family photos to digitize.
