Book Scanning

Scanning books and converting them to digital media is really important.

Here are my notes on book scanning, so far...

Software you will need:

• Linux Mint Debian Edition (other operating systems are available)
• Cheese (A webcam photo capture software)
• Sacn Tailor Advanced (Flatpak) [https://flathub.org/apps/com.github._4lex4.ScanTailor-Advanced]
• ocrmypdf - Optical image recognition

Hardware:

I use this webcam on a stick 'Book Scanner' solution along with a foot pedal.
