Hi all, Sorry for the delay in getting this. The quality is not 100% but it's readable. As you might imagine, scanning 10 pages from a colour magazine results in a large file, so I reduced the images slightly and resampled at 16 bit color. The resulting 900K PDF file is at... http://www.bubblesoftonline.com/curmet.pdf If you think it's unreadable then I will try to sharpen the images before converting. Here is the link to Silicon Chip and the source code for the PIC. http://www.siliconchip.com.au/software/jun02/ammeter.zip -- Best regards Tony mICros http://www.bubblesoftonline.com mailto:sales@bubblesoftonline.com -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The list server can filter out subtopics (like ads or off topics) for you.
