Dear Artur

For many of the Google digitized books on archive.org, I have been able to select the 'All Files: HTTP' link at the bottom of the files menu.

For some reason this particular one isn't working on my system this evening, but usually you can select the .pdf version, and it will download as a normal .pdf file.

This usually works for other 'restricted' archive.org titles as well.

Cheers

Dear List,

I have found a fully unrestricted pdf copy of E. Senart's "Les
inscriptions de Piyadasi" (Paris, MDCCCLXXXVI) at archive.org.


http://archive.org/details/lesinscriptionsd02asokuoft


Unfortunately - only the second volume. I want to copy the brahmi
texts of the inscriptions, as reconstructed by Senart. But I am unable
to do this  with the Google digitized copies of Senart's work, such as
the one shown at:


http://archive.org/details/lesinscriptions01senagoog


Has anyone, please, access to an unrestricted pdf copy of the first volume?

I'd be grateful for a link,
