Now there's an interesting part number for a scanner:-) I've had similar problems in the past trying to "stitch" schematics, I did find a program some years ago that would "half" work, usually matching up the ends of the lines ok, but then leaving quite significant distortion in that region. I know others have claimed some success so thought perhaps it was just me, but perhaps not after all. These days I use a Kodak feed through unit that will take up to A3, and with sheets even larger than that it generally manages in two or more A3 parts with a generous overlap which isn't too bad, so would be quite happy to do the scanning here if I had access to a copy. I'd be more than happy to pay the postage charges both ways if anyone could make a copy available for scanning, and happy to share the results, but must admit if it were my copy I'd probably be pretty reluctant to trust it to the post.

My HP5370C scanner (read that number once more!) doesn't do that size and I have not figured out a good way to have schematics partially scanned and joined together. The one program, hugin, that seems to join photos doesn't work with scanned schematics.
