The original text was scanned with an HP Scanjet 3500c at 300 dpi resoluton, 256 level gray scale. The page images were processed using Adobe Photoshop Elements 2 to remove color casts and defects.

Each page was saved as a Photoshop PDF file and then as a GIF file for the Web. An ASP page was used to display the images.
