Unfortunately almost no Project Gutenberg texts are scanned; they are the result of OCR and/or hand entry/correction. The Internet Archive scans about 1,000 texts a day, but as of writing in December 2013 this work has not been scanned. Here's hoping a kind soul donates a copy to the Archive for scanning and at minimum free online lending. :)

The “Footnotes” section at the end of the file is blank, and the alchemical signs and symbols aren't re-produced in the text. What is re-produced is a notice from Dover that this is a faithful reproduction of the original; if only Project Gutenberg had done the same.
