Thank you for this. I did have a copy already but comparing the two, in just the first few pages, this copy is much better than the one I had.

I can't speak for the OP, but I can mention what I use to scan books:

https://www.czur.com

I bought an ET16 back when they were first introduced. It had some teething
pains at first, but the latest firmware and software are pretty reliable
now. I just received their newest model, the ET24 Pro, which delivers 50%
more pixels (which I think will bring scans up to around 300 dpi), has some
more flexible page-lighting options, and is supposed to now work with Linux.
Both do some image processing to flatten pages; that bit works really well
as long as the text doesn't get too close to the binding.

Mine were both purchased through Indiegogo at a considerable savings. It
looks like a few ET24 Pros are still available at the cheap rates:

https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/et24-pro-incomparable-professional-book-scanner/x/6497739#/

The actual scanning process is pretty simple: click a button (or press a
foot pedal) to image facing pages, turn the page, and repeat until done.
The software aligns, crops, and flattens pages, and separates facing pages
into two. It'll do OCR and save the result to a PDF with the text behind
the scanned image.
