Hello Galip!
 GA>  Hi  Drew Schofield  (from Turkey)
Hello from Memphis TN.
 GA> these questions please reply my mail 1 - Which scanners? (I think Oce'
 GA> ???)
 Yes, I am familiar with the Oce' products...actually I service all the ES 
equipment.  They have just introduced a new line of scanner which I am not 
totally familiar with yet, but I imagine will be like the 6000 series just 
discontinued.  They were 36 inch format (A0) and up to 800 dpi.  They require 
a SCSI host in the PC, and utilize a Windows 3.1 or Windows NT program to 
operate the scanner from the PC.  The old models used 1, 2, or 3 CCD cameras 
to scan, I am not sure about the new ones.
 GA> 2 - Which Software? (I think Cadover Eps ???)
Either Expert Graphics family of products (Rasterex, RX View, RX SPotlight, 
RX Vectory, etc) that do everything from database your files, allow editing 
while still in Raster format or convert to vector for editing in Autocad.
 GA>  3 - Which format
 GA> for raster files (I think Eps is better other formats)
CALS Tif, Tiff, HP RTL, BGM...I'd have to dig out my manual or a brochere to 
remember the rest.  All told it was nearly 45 formats.
If you want more info, since this maybe drifting off topic, Email me via the
