Title: collection of early 80's scanned mags and papers
Post by: kdw712 on February 17, 2014, 03:56 PM: here's a link to PDF's of scans from my BMX weekly, BMX news and OBMX copies

Some of these have been posted as jpg before or on other magazine sites
but these are in a nice PDF format :daumenhoch:

as i scan and add more i will add to this thread. lots more bmx weekly from 82 to scan.

so take a trip back to 1981 / 1982 and enjoy

note some of them are a bit rough (old age ... ) ::)
and some aren't scanned in colour or well .... :-\

http://www.softmio.com/pdf-converter/ (http://www.softmio.com/pdf-converter/)

It's free. We use it at work. It installs as a printer. You just get your files, press print, select the pdf printer, tell it where to save the file and it creates the PDF. It does all depend on how your originals are set up though so it might not be ideal for you.
