I dont know whether this is any use, but you could ask Ryan publishing whether they would do a job like this.

Also potentially dodgy as! I'd say, check their standard contract VERY carefully. Things to beware of (that I can think of on the spur of the moment) - - What control would your company have over the price charged for printed manuals? - What control would your company have over content? - What grievance procedures could you follow? - Would your company be signing over rights to have that manual printed by anyone else (including yourselves) Other things regarding the email itself - - Was this a requested email? The text of the email and the subject line, to me, are contradictory... Which screams 'dodgy ethics' to me. - No company name mentioned? Errrr...?

My company currently doesn't provide hard copy documentation, but is considering doing so in the future and maybe using a service like this. Any advice would be great! ************************************************** To post a message to austechwriter, send the message to austechwriter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe to austechwriter, send a message to austechwriter-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with "subscribe" in the Subject field.
