How do you place the book correct in the cradle? If i measure up the book in the cradle, so that each wing fits tight l...

Re: BookScanWizard 2.0

Re: BookScanWizard 2.0

I'm glad i didn't do something wrong :) One thing i like is the transparency in the software, where i really think BSW tops ST, e.g. what pages the chosen operation applies to.

Re: BookScanWizard 2.0

Re: Tutorial: atx power supply -> camera power supply
