        You'll need a very good scanner to do this. I tried on
one that physically scanned to 1200x2400 (I believe) and
extrapolated to 9600x9600. I had to view the image down
at the pixel level and I am sorry to say that the extrapolation
process was not good enough. I could kind of make out the
diagrams, but the numbers and text were illegiable. I wish
I had a jumbo reader...
