Is it a series of images? I havent yet looked at the wills so I am not sure what they are like.

What I would perhaps do is use MS word (or any word program) and put an image to each page. You can also do two if they are still be legible when shrunk.

Hi Heather

I have downloaded several Wills and simply printed them off as they came from SP. Most were two pages to an A4 page. I also saved them to the appropriate family file on the computer and use Irfanview to display them on screen so that you can enlarge them when the printed copy is too difficult to read.
When we first read a Will we take note of every name, place, local comment, witness names as we work through it. Some don't mean anything at the time but turn up again later and he3lp find other links to the family.
It is difficult to get your head round 'lawyerspeak' at first but as you get used to it but, as you get used to it, the intentions of the person making the Will begin to come through. We decided that we quite liked some of our ancestors but others

Hi Heather

Russell's eyes are probably somewhat younger than mine - I also use Irfanview (very useful free program) and split each image into 2 pages & print off each page separately. I find it slightly easier to read this way.

Hi all

split each image into 2 pages & print off each page separately.

I tend to do it that way too, otherwise I find the text too small in most cases.

Best wishes
