Dear Shyamal, this workshop was for demonstrating the participants about
create a home made set up to scan the books, edit the scanned images
and make an eBook. OCR is not still stable for Indic languages and would
need another workshop for presentation. Here the "creating text based
documents" is basically the manual editing on WikiSource. Please feel
free to edit and correct if any mistakes found. --

- That sounds too basic. Almost any office assistant these days is
expected to know how to use a scanner and create at least a PDF. It
would be good if you can post your proposed workshops. There are really
excellent (and local if I may add) resources who can be proposed by the
community. Shyamal (talk) 15:00, 19 August 2013 (UTC)
