Thanks for the awesome conversion Peter, the unicode text file version
of those pali suffixes is very easy to read. Was it difficult to
massage the pictures into something the OCR could recognize 3 different
languages?
I don't know Japanese, but I can fiddle around with google translate and
see if it does a serviceable job from japanese->english

Dear Frank,
Here you are. And thanks for pointing out that attachments to the Group
aren't allowed. I already wondered why there was no reaction.
It would be nice to find some volunteers to replace the Japanese
renderings with English, Chinese, or other languages. I could offer my
help to do the translation into German.
Best regards,
Peter

Dear Peter,
I think the Pali yahoogroups email list is set up to not allow file
attachments. If you send me a copy of it offlist, I'll upload it to the
yahoo group files section. Thanks!
