The high resolution also allows for close-up examination of all images on your computer monitor and in many cases makes reading the text easier than the original document. Quality printers can print these documents nearly identically to the original document. Maintaining a library as such is a time consuming and expensive venture, all materials have a small download fee to offset the library's many expenses.
