Corpus of Spanish text

Hi all,

How would I find a corpus of Spanish text, as large as possible, for training general NLP models?

Ideally, it would be a corpus of books and/or magazines for the sake of lower variation in grammar and spelling, etc.

Thanks P

I know about this tool, FreeLing, developed at Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. It provides a range of NLP tools for Spanish. There is no corpora available for download, but I suppose you can get in touch with the people who work on the project and they can provide you with corpora for non-commercial use.
