9.2 MB for djvu file version, and 15.1 MB for pdf version
look a sample of its hieroglyphic preface

i prefer djvu than Pdf since it is more suitable for the slow computers
also i prefer the books scanned in a way in which its original old color are retained, and not the clean one. i have downloaded many books from archive.org using keywords like : puzzles, riddles, amusements, recreation, and its variants.
