I have a full suite of professional electronic publishing tools and can prepare things like books, brochures, leaflets, etc., that might be useful for promotional use. Not being a marketroid, I'm not necessarily qualified to write the content (although I can certainly help with that if needed), but I can massage it all into page layouts that can be converted to PDFs and professionally printed. (I can't cover the physical printing myself, though, as actually printing the documents costs more than I can afford). If you're going to pitch FreeBSD to corporations and other serious organizations, you need some sort of promotional literature. Preparing PDFs for printing or display is delicate work; and Microsoft Word or StarOffice are not the tools for doing it, sorry. -- Anthony
