Old typewriter Document

tsarwonderful · #1 Feb 8, 2008, 01:17 PM

My professor has this dissertation from 1965 that he want me to transfer into a word-searchable document. However, since it is produced by an old-school typewriter, there have been some difficulties in having it correctly transferred directly to word due the font.
Any suggestions?
