Very common commercial software, like Finereader for instance, give you the option of saving documents as pdf - both image or text, both as individual pages, and as whole pdf documents. I found one site that says the document is availaboe at Stanford on microfiche; unfortunately that's no good for us to handle, I'm afraid... But if someone has access to Stanford library, it might be possible to obtain a digital copy. No idea how things work over there. Here in Italy it would be terribly difficult; bureaucracy is awful on this side of the world... (smile). Hope something can be done...
