Today, I received email instructions about further processing of the Wallulah. I spent the first hour or so of my shift working figuring out converting the TIFs to the appropriately sized JPG. I did this with two of the Wallulahs. Towards the end of the day, I also tried converting them to PDFs in adobe, but this didn't work out as planned because of the way the files were named. I will need to find a way to change the file names before converting them all.
Sandwiched between the beginning and end was my ever exciting Wallulah project. I finally finished scanning and editing the 1912 (labeled 1913) Wallulah, and then scanned and edited 120 pages out of the 1917 (labeled 1918) Wallulah. Unfortunately, in this Wallulah, the margins are incredibly narrow, and I found it really difficult to keep the decorative border uncropped. Though, I did discover a faster way to scan during this Wallulah. So it has so far had both it's wins and woes.
Tomorrow, I will continue with the Wallulah. If I ever figure out how to change those pesky names, I will do the convert to PDFs as well. Otherwise, I'll just keep scanning.
