Dear Volunteer list,
The answer to this question might be no, but I thought that I would double 
check. I found a free PDF version of a book online of which I already had 
started scanning the print paperback version. The pagination between the PDF 
book and the print book is exactly the same as far as I can see. I accidentally 
lost or misplaced the print copy of my book in the process of moving. Would it 
be legal for me to select the pages that I didn't scan from the PDF and add 
them to the original file? The book is entitled Overcoming Through Jesus: 
Embracing His Death and Receiving His Victorious Life by Bill Liversidge. The 
following text appears at the top of each PDF page:

COPIED BY PERMISSION OF BILL LIVERSIDGE

If I can't use the PDF version, I will buy the print book again at some later 
point and rescan.
