I was faced with a choice of giving up my book collection (unacceptable) or scanning them. I don't have time to deal with OCR and the resulting editing so I settling for just scanning them to OCR and reading them as is. I don't know how well the EZReader will read image type PDFs (the Mentor did a poor job) but I have had good luck with my JetBook Lite.



This is not to say you can't do what you want. I just wanted to warn you how much work you are getting yourself into and the limitations you may run into. Again, if you still want to go through with this, the Workshop would be a good place to start. You will find threads on scanners, software, etc. there.[/QUOTE]


It is actually much easier than your description: Scan to searchable PDF.
That is quite fast and depending on the quality of the scan pretty accurate.
Then use a 9'7 ebook-reader and you are fine.
That is at least the procedure that works for me.
