I am sure there are many who can do this. The idea is very simple: you 
divide the plan drawing to segments that can fit a standard printer page 
size, bearing in mind the difference between the US and the European 
standards sizes. Pick the smaller of the two. The segments have to be a bit 
smaller than the selected paper size, since no printers can print a bleed, 
i.e., to the edge of the paper and beyond. Then you save the scans as PDF 
files, and some kind of an index which will tell the downloader in what 
sequence they make up the plan. All they have to do when they downloaded 
the bunch, is trim out the margins and paste the individual pages together. 
Rube Goldbergish, no doubt, but simple.

I sell nothing of the kind. You must be confusing me with somebody else. I 
already told you that there are no Lute Suites in my catalogue, and I have 
never owned a set of facsimiles of the Bach-Weyrauch myself. All I have are 
those included in the Koonce edition. I suggest you apply to the Neil Kjos 
Publishing Company in San Diego, those who published Frank Koonce  edition. 
Just one little friendly advise: this is a very large company, much larger 
than my own little one man operation. Don't take them for granted.

And what cookies might these be?
