Will you scan my Machinery Handbook for me? It is 2693 pages long and the cover measures 4.8 X 7.2 inches. You won’t be allowed to break the binding.
My copy (the 29th edition) is 3492 pages long, not counting front matter and introduction. The cover currently measures 9¾"x14" — no problem with legibility! I found it here (26,025,361 bytes, a few seconds of download time).
