Re: Memoirs, Defenses and Glasow, Oh My!

Hmm. "Different people claim different things; the truth remains unknown" is not an option?

Agreed. Lucchesini + Glasow are the most likely candidates for their respective roles in this.

Either way, Fredersdorf, if you just hadn't gotten sick and died, none of this would have happened!

What I believe to be the Kalckreuth memoirs are in the library. The file is a bit weird, since it's cobbled together from 4 Minerva volumes, 3 from Hathi and 1 from Stabi. I would have preferred all Hathi, because of the white background, but it was missing a volume, so I had to resort to Stabi.

The reason I prefer the white background, btw, is that my computer does not handle the colored background well at *all*, and takes several seconds to load each page, making it impossible to browse. I have figured out how to remove the white background, thus returning processing speed to normal, but only at the cost of file size: 30 MB files become 4 GB files, which is not sustainable. Haven't solved that yet.

So I apologize for the weirdness of this file. At least it's a pdf? There may also be extraneous material, but if I've inadvertently left anything out, let me know. If it's actually a living movie director or a grandson or something, you have my permission to make fun of me. ;)

If I've yet again put it in the wrong folder, ditto.
