Angie.. If your scanner software supports it, just scan it as TEXT, and verify the characters it might not accept. Otherwise, as an image, changing the resolution will make it smaller. Higher resolution will make it quite large. Also, if you scan it to a BMP file, you can further reduce it by changing that image to a JPG format. If you want to have someone reduce it for you, just send me your best image, and I will convert (Or try) the file for you, and return it. I don't know if the BOND list should get all this traffic though. Maybe tagging your EMAIL address at the bottom of one message could make it easier for requests, and assistance to go directly to you, instead of the hundreds of people on the distribution list. You may contact me directly if you wish me to try the conversion. I scan every day, but do it from work, where the *Expensive* software is available for scanners.
