Here another suggestion on the problem of enhancing the digitized image of the old prayer book writings. If you still have the original paper in question, try photographing it with infrared film through an IR filter of course. This method is frequently used by law enforcement personnel when dealing with old, erased, or altered documents. The Kodak publication M-28 (Applied Infrared Photography) covers the technique on pages 44-47 ($6. from Kodak). This information is from Bob Scott (Kay*Fog BBS) via ROOTS-BBS.
