Hi Michael

You are correct, of course. There is no problem in printing either an entire manual, or selected pages, from these pdf files.

The potential problem I was trying to describe, was that it was not easily possible to select a small section of text, or an illustration, to reproduce in the way you might do from -say - a "Word" document.

The reason is that the way the manuals have been scanned is rather like a collection of photographs - one for each page of the original paper manual. It is not a collection of separate, editable, typed words and individual pictures or diagrams (the difference is difficult to describe, so I hope that that makes sense!).
