	I have close to zero knowledge of IBM and DOS,  I would really
appriciate if someone out there will answer my questions.

1. What are different scanners avialabe out there for IBM pcs, specially for 
   engineering applications, mainly Mechanical Engg Drawings ??

2. What kind of Files do they generate generally, for color as well
   as black & white image?  Are there some standard file-formates
   around?  Can anyone send me a (very small) sample file?

Any information is highly appriciated,  reply via e-mail or us mail.

thanks
