Wow! Those scans look great. How big of a deal was it to get them scanned in? Did you have to set up an appointment? Did you just drop the schematics off and pick them up a week later? Would they have been able to do full color if needed (thinking about side art)? Finally, how did they give you the images? Floppy, CD, Zip disk?
