Forum member chocokid posted a great how-to on scanning a book by removing the binding first. Thanks for documenting the process!

I had a stack of papers about two feet tall on my desk and I was feeling a bit overwhelmed. Where to start? What to scan?

I was asked in a comment to create some kind of flow chart on how to process paper into a paperless system so I sat down with MindManager and did [...]

MindJet now has a Student User Forum on their website. From the e-mail:
