for some weird reason all people ditched me tonight so I spend a nice evening home and watched some tv and read some articles. Long story short I read about a technique to make details in paper visible related to the angle of flash. So I started to play with light and shadows and got soon some first results. They are not perfect yet, I miss some more details in the lettering, means I want that the single letter have a kind of 3D effect. But for a first try it was not to bad.

These shots specially look very nice at 100% when you can see the fine structure of the paper.

btw the first person who finds out which book it is get a cookie, which is quiete easy if you know how to use google...
