Hi,
I am new to the list, quite new to Runeberg at all actually. I first
discovered the site two years ago when my interest in old Norse history
grew, and i had bought my own copy of Salmonsens Konversasjonsleksikon
(for a mere 1000NOK!), and to find that someone actually was taking the
time to scan this masterpiece was quite amazing. Now Runeberg keeps
growing and more and more literature is added.
Now I have come across some material that I feel should be shared with
others, and runeberg is a perfect place to make literature available to
everyone. I have a normal A3 scanner so I might not be able to scan the
pages perfectly straight, and that brings me to deskew. What deskew tool
should one use, and I hope there are some free alternatives out there.
Or maybe there is an option like this in photoshop or other wide-market
application?
If everything goes as planned I hope to be able to upload something in a
couple of weeks, getting hold of these books was quite a struggle...
I am also so fortunate that they have a license of ABBYY FineReader at
my fathers workplace, so I should be able to supply OCR of the pages as
well.
Anyhow, I appreciate all your hard work.
Greetings
Simen Bjelke
