I took some scanned images and made a pdf book out of these. This manual might be already posted somewhere on here but due to the bad quality of some of these, I thought it might be good to have a higher quality scanned manual. Both files were too big, so i had to split them, if you want to join them back together, there is a free program called PdFill that does it super easy and has tons of other pdf editing features. Enjoy! Keith

Greetings Keith, Guys, Gals;


I understand what you did. I was in the process of doing a similar thing.

I also have this manual, but, unfortunately the only way that I could
save it was in xps format. I had come to a similar conclusion that you
did. The only way to convert it to PDF was to take snap shots of it.

Anyway to the point........ You saved me a lot of time........


Thank You,


Mike

Great manuals thank you

Just in case you are not aware - there is now a program called Hathi Download Helper that will download any of the google scans that are on Hathi with a variety of options including a PDF file which it creates after downloading a graphic of each page. It is freeware available from multiple sites to suit most operating systems. Unfortunately Murphy made sure it was not available when you did these manuals.

Now all we need is a program that removes that horrible watermark from the bottom of each page ;)
