I am doing a newspaper digitization project and am debating between the only two planetary scanners that I know of that will do newspaper size scanning: the Bookeye and the Minolta PS7000. I have compared samples from both scanners and from sample scans it appears that the Bookeye does a better job of producing a good text scan at 300 dpi. The Minolta will scan at 400 dpi which I admit I didn't test.Is anyone using the Bookeye for large format scanning who would be willing to comment on it?
Thanks.
