I would like to say that the manual is currently looking dam great!

But what did you use to make the PDF manual?

I'd like to be able to produce high quality documents like that :)

No. Actually, I used MS Word to create the document itself. Then I used Adobe Acrobat to create the PDF itself. Actually Acrobat 6 Pro... it has macros that plug into Word to export directly from word.

PhotoShop is good for images, stormy, not documents.

Anyway, Levi. Thanks! :) Glad at least someone likes it.

Actually, TBH, I've gotten a lot more of it done since I did that manual... I want to finish more of it though before posting an update.
