Note: Technically this issue should be called Power after Future renamed the mag from #50 onwards which means I need to combine those two mags in the download area into one and adjust the naming for this issue and any others from 50 onwards. As soon as I get some spare time I'm onto it. :P

I remember that day quite well. My mother received a phone call about it happening, and she woke me up that morning, stating, "They're bombing America!" I thought we were in the middle of a nuclear war. But when I saw it, it was unbelievable, like a train wreck in slow motion. Maybe not a nuclear war, but still shocking.

I was asked to leave college early because of some silliness I was told going on in the US. It wasn't until I got home and the day was over that the full extent of what happened became apparent to me.

Quote from: Kiwi on Aug 28, 2023, 06:49 PMYet another massive poster that was a pita to scan.
Posters are the worst. No one even appreciates them, since regardless of its size, a scanned poster usually looks no different than any other regular page when viewed on a digital display.
I refuse to scan them if they're over a certain size. Dengeki G's puts out giant posters that are the size of 16 A4 pages. No way am I spending hours stitching together 16 pages just to make an image that will look like any other normal page in the CBR.
These were something like 8 A4 pages in size. I split them down the middle then fed them through the fi-5650c A3 scanner but it's almost impossible to feed something that big through straight. Did the best I can with the enthusiasm level I could muster up for it ....
The April 1990 issue of Bits & Bytes is now available. There were four staples holding this together. FOUR!! No wonder they went bust. Probably bankrupted themselves on the cost of the staples :P

This tool is 100% useless for stitching together debound pages scanned with an ADF, at least in every single instance I tried it on. It just gives a message saying that the images can't be stitched, and to make sure the images overlap. That's the problem - in order for it to work, there needs to be part of the image in each file which is identical (an overlap), which of course there won't be when scanning separate pages. I'm really not sure how it could be used for magazine scans to stitch two-page spreads or posters...but it would almost certainly require using a large flatbed scanner to scan a page and at least a part of another page at the same time for each part of the image to be stitched. When dealing with a poster made up of 8-16 pages, that sounds like more trouble than it's worth. Regardless, I don't intend to ever own an A3 flatbed, so the point is moot.
Yes I can see your problem as there needs to be a significant overlap between scans, I use an A3 flatbed but then the largest I've ever done is an A0 size and many A1 & A2 sizes.
