I made my first attempt at digitizing a book using a flatbed scanner. I really can't imagine anyone doing it that way. Especially if one attempts to do it while leaving the book intact. Trying to get a scan that will yield even reasonably accurate result from the OCR process while having to press down on the book during the scan and at the same time being sure that it is correctly aligned, how anyone could manage this at any reasonable production rate is beyond me.
