[Milsurplus] Copying from Books

[Al Klase]

Hi John,

Nobody spoke up so here goes.  You can download the package anonymously, 
and try it for 15 days.  I did this and took a quick look.  Yes, it does 
some neat things.  You can grab a shot of an open book and it will 
straighten up the perspective and split it into two pages.  It will deal 
with multiple images and make the whole thing into a .pdf.

I found it a little less than intuitive to use, and I'm disappointed 
that it doesn't seem to do anything sophisticated with the images like 
enhancing contrast or making them black and white to reduce resulting 
file size.  Fifty buck seems like too much money for the way I'm likely 
to use it.

YMMV,
Al
