The digital edition of Gospel Light began with volume 18 (published on December 2011) and will be continued in the foreseeable future. However, back-issues are currently available in physical form only.

It is possible to scan past issues, but the resulting file size will be very big. In order to lessen the PDF filesize, we must first convert it to text. We can use optical character recognition (OCR) programs to semi-automate the process. But OCR is still an evolving technology and the output will have quite a lot of mistakes.

Volunteers are needed to process the OCR output, and convert it into a form suitable for digital publishing. OCR is especially weak with regards to Chinese text. If you have the skills and time to do this, please contact us!

務光數字版十八卷(二○十一年十二月出版)開始,將在可預見的將來繼續。然而,後面的問題是目前僅在物理形式。

掃描過去的問題是有可能的,但生成的文件大小將是非常大的。為了減輕的PDF文件大小,我們必須首先把它轉換為文本。我們可以使用光學字符識別程序,以半自動化的過程。但光學字符識別仍然是一個不斷發展的技術和產量將有相當多的犯了很多錯誤。

志願者們需要處理光學字符識別輸出,並轉化為適合數字出版的形式。 光學字符識別弱尤其是對中國文字的問候。如果你有做到這一點的技能和時間,請聯繫我們!
