The condition is described as generally poor due to being cut. Unless otherwise noted, there are no writings or missing pages. There may be some paper folds or tears that do not interfere with scanning. Also, while scanning and digitizing often makes reading easier, older books may have age-related deterioration such as yellowing of the paper. On the other hand, newer books may be cut from new copies. "Cut" means that the spine of the book has been cut to separate all the pages, creating a "bundle of paper" for the purpose of converting the book into an electronic file such as a PDF. Turning a book with a spine into a "bundle of paper" is done to make it easier to read with a document scanner specialized for continuous reading of large amounts of documents. When scanned and converted into an electronic file such as a PDF, it can be read on tablets and computers. You can search for "book self-scanning" to understand more. Covers and obi (paper bands) may not be cut if they fit within the scanner's reading width (216mm). Large-format books exceeding A4 size will have their covers cut to match the scanner's reading width. In any case, the paper is in a condition that is not suitable for reading, so please refrain from purchasing if you do not intend to digitize it.
