i subjected the scans to o.c.r. using finereader v7.
what an original idea ...
one of the options in finereader is to output a .pdf.
Now, as you yourself said, the pdf format is useless for further editing. So why don't you try to output something useful, like, say, an XML file. If you were able to get a TEI file out of your finereader, you could actually proofread the thing and produce a pdf file out of it that looks a *lot* better than the one you posted. Besides you would get an html and a plain text file into the bargain, ready for posting. -- Marcello Perathoner webmaster@gutenberg.org
