Although the board did come with a hard copy book of course, the pdf on-line and on the cd was an un-OCRED pdf. So, I had to open it in acrobat reader, (the non-accessible version in those days), print it to the virtual paperport printer, save as a multipage tif, and import into openbook, thus getting the text file, a part of which I posted. No, not elegant by any means, but it sure did beat sitting in front of the scanner, flipping pages in the book, and replacing on the glass, since importing from pdf to openbook only took a few seconds, and I went off and did something else while openbook did its processing.
