Dear Alfor, having returning from vacation I find a wonderful and greatly appreciated set of extremely interesting pieces. I am especially grateful Vladigerov Vol 4 to complete the entire series which you have so generously posted for all of us. This has been a fairly massive undertaking for you and I am especially delighted to have these wonderful hires copies. With 3 fresh reams of paper in hand, I will soon have volume 4 printed and bound to join the other volumes. I have been playing quite a bit or Vladigerov lately and it is great fun to be able to play thru many pieces at a single sitting at the keyboard without hunting for them since they are now so readily at hand. Without a doubt this music will be found by many pianists now that you have made all of it so accessible. Thanks again for you hard work.

Dear fleubis,

welcome back! - BTW I would be interested in your binding techniques. Most of the Vladigerov scans do not leave any binding space (at least with DIN A4 paper).

Best regards

Hi Alfor,

First off, I use this binding machine

http://bit.ly/lIGzCJ

This is a coil binding machine and while not perfect makes for fairly easy page turning with the pages staying put when turned. My paper size is a non-Euro standard 9" X 12" and I have to have my covers and paper cut to this size as most of my other music is this size. Through various settings in Acrobat a margin can be specified to allow for the binding. Some other scores have to be scaled to fit. I have a young lady do this for me as it often takes considerable time, which is better spent at the piano.

Best,
fleubis
