Your efforts are appreciated. While certainly better than nothing, I do hope that the manuals can be made available in a better format than PDF. I recall particular interest was expressed in HTML.Jamal On 6/10/2010 8:46 PM, Trouble wrote:He gave me one to try on my mac to see what could be done there. So far I got it to a PDF and seeing if I can convert that to doc. So even as a PDF it shouldn't be long now before we get them back to the list for viewing.

He was going to search for a tool that would enable him to open the files, but no one knew of a Windows-based one that could definately do the job. Can't you post the collection in a zip archive somewhere (DreamHost, SendSpace, or whatever)?
