The latter involves both scanning and printing. Scanning only to a pdf obviously s...

Re: Looking for A3 Scanner
You can try a hand (wheeled) scanner but I reckon that won't be faster or betterquality than using any A4 flat-bed scanner. The 'curve effect' is not significant for 200 pages, and mostly would effect the a (blank/white) margin. 300 dots/inch should be the mininimum resolution but 400 or more (600 d...

Re: Looking for A3 Scanner
1. Borrowing one would be fine.. a one-off job, right? 2. Later today I'll ask the MV guys... from memory they have a pro A3 size printer/scanner. 3. For recurring tasks something like this (and its predecessors) https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/shine-ultra-next-gen-portable-powerful-scanner#/ wou...

Re: Thailand Immigration: getting tough with guests (TM30 24 hour reporting)
Such foreign individuals will already be registered on house registration books (“tabien bahn”) I know that I should keep way from this as a lot of it is just conjecture, but unless you have a "Yellow" tabien bahn, this is NOT correct. And having a"Yellow" book is not something ...
