To give the program universal appeal Adobe Acrobat Reader was produced and is available for free. I think the question you are asking is 'are there alternatives to pdf files?' That entirely depends on the person who provided the file. It's much easier (and a LOT cheaper time wise) to take a written manual and zap it into pdf format than to convert it to html. There are also big advantanges in that all formatting remains the same as the original.	Guest (0)
