This is as small as I could make the Frugatti Exercises

I have an old, yellow and torn book by Giuseppe Frugatta who made 24 studies on the 24 Etudes of Chopin.
These are the Chopin etudes a bit simplified (but still very difficult).
I'm not good in scanning, that's why the 50 pages together are 151 MB!
I have uploaded the folder to Mediafire.
Maybe someone can put them in a decent file.

Here's my version of the Frugatta. I was able to tweak the JPGs a bit and generate a B&W PDF file.

Thanks Jim. What a huge improvement over what I was able to do. You clearly have tools I do not have. I'm thinking Photoshop. Glad to have these nice studies preserved in such a pristine manner.

Many thanks to Kroket and also to Jim. Jim, HOW can you make miracles like this? I am totally admirative of the final quality.

Thanks for your kind words. I've never used Photoshop or the genuine Adobe tools: everything is accomplished on a 13 year old computer using a 12 year old graphics program and various free PDF manipulation tools from the internet.

I am amazed! Do you give lessons? Not only did you reduce to TRUE black and white (Adobe Acrobat Pro can only go to gray scale), but you aligned an straightened the pages

It is indeed a miracle. Instead of playing out of my very yellowed Frugatta-book I now will use the white scans that Jim was able to produce! Thanks.
