Instead of blaming people like myself for doing it "the wrong way"
why don't you do it and let us judge if we like it your way.
...and all of a sudden instead of discussing PDF's actual merits or
lack thereof, you shift to discussing whether it's popular.
If we like what you are doing better then we can all
stop and let you
do it all ;-)
I've said it before and I'll say it again, I'd rather have PDFs tha
nothing. Documentation in a difficult-to-use format is better than no
documentation at all.
But if we're discussing the pros and cons of various formats, then it
*is* appropriate to criticize brokennesses in the formats under
discussion.
I'll set aside a few giga-bytes for all the
manuals you scan.
Only one, so far, and the directory full of bzip2ed scan files is only
some 42 megs - and that includes the duplicates for the pages I scanned
in greyscale and/or colour as well as lineart.
ftp.rodents.montreal.qc.ca:/mouse/misc/EK-KA630-UG-001/ in case you're
curious.
