Metacomco C Manual

Hi,
I have been looking at the scanned PDF of the Metacomco C manual, that was scanned on a Spanish QL web site.
The resultant PDF was very badly scanned with 2 pages per A4 page. Which I can split this into single pages very easily.
But the scanned file have scanned out of order, I spent nearly an hour sorting the PDF pages into the correct order, ready for splitting to single pages.
But I found 2 double pages containing 4 manual pages missing:
Page 98, 99
Page 142, 143
If any one has the Metacomco C Manual I would appreciate a copy of these pages.

I think it must be that one as I've just found it on a Spanish website.
Here we are.

Hi Chr$
Yes that is the one the Spanish scanned version is rubbish.
I will add the pages you kindly sent and see if I can get the manual in a better form.

Looks like the Spanish version is a scan of a old photocopy.

Hi Chr$,
Could scan your manual and send me the pages you uploaded and I will do the rest as with the McGrawhill manual.

My copy of the book has an official looking correction added to page 14 regarding "%workspace", and another one on page 38.
I can scan this over the weekend if it's not included in the Spanish scan.

Could scan your manual dame the pages you upliaded and I will do rhe rest as with the McGrawhill manual.
Mine also had this 2-page errata.
Each time I scan I have to walk around my desk to the printer/scanner to change the content. At approx. 225 pages, scanning the whole thing would be quite an undertaking!

Hi Chr$,
Do not worry, I will produce an editable version, so that we can easily amend it later.
