You will need to make 2 scans and use some sticking/overlap software to join both together. Flatbed A2 scanners look very big/heavy and probably just insanely expensive! Julien

Thank you all for the input! I greatly appreciate it. elahrairrah wrote: I'm planning on trying to do this at my place of work as our copiers double as scanners with large flatbeds (of course, over the weekend so people don't wonder what they hell I'm doing.)
I'll share my results here. Looking forward to those results.

Okay, I tried again with a different model copier and was able to input a custom size for the scan. Unfortunately, you can't quite get a full scan of an LD as the scan area maxes out at 16" x 11-11/16". Still, it did come out exceptionally clean. Attachment:
