Joe has a posted a pretty cool announcement for any vexillology

They're posted on the blog, but I think this deserves more attention.

I'd like to put them on our Books page, but before we do, we could make
the text on the images more legible. Anyone willing to help out? The one
suggestion I have is to use a lossless image format like PNG so that we
don't make the JPEG artifacts worse. We might also want to encapsulate
these in a PDF, though that's probably not necessary.

You mean like this?

I've only worked through the first image so far. I saved the image as a PNG, deleted the text parts, added the PNG to a SVG document and replaced the labels with selectable text. Anyone better than me at reducing JPEG artefacting might want to see if they can improve the graphic part, but the labels are now easier to read.

If this is the sort of thing you were thinking of, Jon, I can have a go at the rest of them also, though it's a bit of a slow job.
