I don't much care for how I think it's a wonderful idea. I'd like even fewer chunks, say eight to ten (maximum) that can be printed separately, e.g., Chapter 1; Chapters 2-4; Chapter 5 (maybe also 6); Chapter 7; Chapters 8-11; Chapters 12-15; Chapters 16-22; and all Appendices. About the maximum length of any of these (I don't know the length of most of them) should be that of Chapter 7, which was 58 pages when I printed it. If downloaded as html source, the handbook looks great printed from Netscape, and the formatting is retained. If downloaded as text it's printable from dos without further processing, which is one solution to the need for a plain text copy of the handbook. Annelise
