Description
A quick web hack to view pages out of a PDF scan of a Fakebook. The idea is you can do a quick song search with your phone/laptop/whatever when you need the chart for a gig. Possible extras include annotations/bookmarks, and ideally music extraction/transposition.
I took an index document and OCRed it to get the database listing. PDF->png extraction uses libpoppler, tornadoweb used for web application.
Source/live site maybe coming soon.
Some screenshots:
