[wellylug] Scanning, storing, & publishing a 320 page document ..

[Adam Bogacki]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone would have any advice on
professionally scanning, storing, and publishing a 320 page doc .. an
M.A. (Hons) thesis.

(1) BY 'professionally' I mean best practice - I could do it at home
on an Epson Perfection 640U but I'd like to know what other options
there are in Wellington .. I'm sure it's not the first time.

(2) Storage: CD &/or USB .. roughly how much storage would I need ?

(3) Publishing: Abiword 2.4.6 has a 'Save as .pdf' option ..
[OpenOffice.org Writer 2.0.4 has one to 'Export Directly as pdf'].
 
Once I have it scanned & formatted I can work
towards a summarised peer-reviewed publication,
without losing the original, rather than re-writing 
parts of it from scratch.

Cheers,

Adam.
