BAMA users want to print out a copy of the manual to use on the
workbench.  Then the need for 300 dpi scanning arises.

Absolutely! I have been meaning to finish a Galaxy V mkII manual for BAMA
(my first effort) but I found myself touching up a lot then it just got to
be boring. Scanned to TIF and reduced pages to 2-color gifs except for a
couple with pictures & I think I made those into 256 grey scale images.

BAMA has saved me a couple times, so I guess I need to hop on that project
& finish it. Thanks for maintaining such a great resource! 

BTW, did you know that some guy/guys are copying BAMA files to CD & selling
them on Ebay? I was hunting for a good S-38E manual and bought one there.
It was a byte for byte copy of BAMA.
