In the last couple of months ,I have purchased 2 TR8 manuals on eBay. My first is a rather ratty copy that the binder is loose. My newest one is a very good and solid copy.

There are copies on disk of this and I want to provide free versions . I am pondering breaking my ratty one and coping it.

Are there any suggestions to a particular PDF version that would be the easiest way to do this. I noticed most versions of other manuals don't always follow the real book. Is there a reason for this?
 
I know not which would be the most efficient way of copying the book. My biggest concern would be the implications of copying and distributing free or otherwise, copyrighted material!
You could be ......... leaving yourself open to one huge can of worms.
You might want to ensure that you are not going to venture into something illegal that could possibly get you into hot water.
That is ...... IF copyright laws even apply in your scenario.
Just a thought.
 
Don't bother me any. Once it's out it's out. What about all the people who "SELL" bootlegged CD's?
 
Like I said "Just a thought"
I know there are a lot of individuals that sell, trade or leave their computers open to P2P networks for the explicit purpose of distributing copyrighted material weather it be music, books, movies, or software and never get "caught" but there are some that do get caught and those few individuals pay a rather heavy price for their indiscretions.
All I know is where my luck lay, it is what it is.
I would be one of the unlucky ones for sure.
You Sir, are much braver than I.
Scanning an entire book into .txt, .doc, or .pdf I suppose would be rather time consuming. Quite an endevour in itself. Then there is the cost of and the burn time for each CD.
Probably not something I would undertake even if I knew for certain I would be safe in doing so.
Not trying to talk you out of this endevour mind ya, just thinking out loud.
 
I wouldn't scan it to Cd for sell but would send it in a PDF to people who want it. It would be big but I have them for TR-3,6,7 and have gotten it that way.
It would be for people on this board and others. And people I know.

The big thought is what to do with the pages when I was done. I think to encase them in plastic and put in a binder would be best.
It would take a while to do.
