Hi

Is there a way to download this document:  https://archive.org/details/BenZionBokserHaMahzorLRoshHaShanahVYomKippurTheHighHolydayPrayerBook1959 in a format so that I can edit the Hebrew text?  
Thank you.

Mason

The document is downloadable but the Hebrew text will need to be transcribed, either manually or by training an OCR like Tesseract to read it. 

If you'd like to take on either project, let me know and I'll help you get started and tell other people that you're looking for help.

My scan of this siddur for the Open Siddur Project was made to help folk get over the initial hump of having scanned images to transcribe from.


Shabbat Shalom,

Aharon
