Now there's an interesting part number for a scanner:-)
I've had similar problems in the past trying to "stitch" schematics, I did
find a program some years ago that would "half" work, usually matching up
the ends of the lines ok, but then leaving quite significant distortion in
that region. I know others have claimed some success so thought perhaps it
was just me, but perhaps not after all.
These days I use a Kodak feed through unit that will take up to A3, and
with sheets even larger than that it generally manages in two or more A3
parts with a generous overlap which isn't too bad, so would be quite happy to do
the scanning here if I had access to a copy.
I'd be more than happy to pay the postage charges both ways if anyone could
make a copy available for scanning, and happy to share the results, but
must admit if it were my copy I'd probably be pretty reluctant to trust it
to the post.
Regards

Let's see if there is a scanner available to handle the fold-outs.
My HP5370C scanner (read that number once more!) doesn't do that size
and I have not figured out a good way to have schematics partially
scanned and joined together. The one program, hugin, that seems to join
photos doesn't work with scanned schematics.
Cheers,
Magnus
