<p class="MsoNormal">Dear colleagues,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please forgive me if this is not the right list for posting this question, but I could not think of an alternative. Perhaps someone might point me in a better direction?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am trying to take an image of a watermark in a late medieval manuscript which is covered with thick script. Someone suggested a cold light pad might be useful, but I have never used one and do not know where to buy one. Does anyone have
experience with cold light pads and/or can you make suggestions for vendors? Any other suggestions for devices that could be used for imaging watermarks (for a small library with modest means)?<o:p></o:p></p>
