Hi @NewTasana

Thank you for your suggestions.

If you can find me the sources in formatted text (markdown, html, xml, etc.) - in other words, not PDFs or scanned images -, I can have a look :-)

Frankly, Eusebius does not fit in with my purpose for this collection; I don't think our publications use him as a source (or very infrequently).

The one I think I would be willing to include is "Faith on the March". I have seen it as PDF and scanned images, but the quality is poor. See if you can get me a chapter by chapter - markdown format would be best, though html will do.

I stand corrected. Just checked and there is a fair amount of mentions.

We can have a look at this one perhaps at a later time.

Possible sources of Faith on the March

The problem with these is that even the text is like this:

2024-08-18_07-55-58

It's riddled with errors due to poor OCR quality, and the "paragraphs" are segmented into lines.

The PDF is even worse, because the original image quality was poor and the embedded text is useless.

Unless you have something better, these will be a headache. What one needs is AI to process the images directly - "read" the text :-)

Hi Gregory,

I just spent half a day processing the text of Faith on the March. There are still many errors. I have broken it up into the 16 chapters. Do you think you could find 16 reliable volunteers to read through a chapter each, comparing with the scanned PDF version and correcting the errors? That would speed up the work and we could have a nice JW Library version.

What do you think?
