The sci-fi books/mags are not illustration heavy, but there are a few. I really don't care if they get cropped out or cropped in half, but will the very presence of an illustration mess up the way BRISS works? I know you're right about using an OCR program... I'm just a bit broke at the moment, but if that's the only/best way...
I don't think Ploppy was referring to Briss. It merely crops out white space, etc. What he said is right though: you need to OCR is you want reflow (Duokan).
You could just scan them and Briss them and hope that the text is large enough to read on the K3.
On a DX, this would suffice. On a K3...maybe not so much.
I find the reflow with Duokan isn't all that great myself and never use it, but then again I do have a DX.
