May I ask how you did it and how long it took you? I've never actually tried making a PDF manual and I have this impression that it takes a lot of work especially to get working links and other stuff in it.
It took a few hours. I worked on it on and off for about a week. I just copied and pasted to a Word doc. I found a program that creates a PDF from Word docs. The program automatically creates the bookmarks based on the headings otherwise I don't think I would have added those.

The link to the full manual does not appear to function. The 'no graphics' manual appears after maybe a five second hang, but the full manual did not appear after a 90 second wait.
The server I use seems to be slow. When I first tested the link it took about 10 minutes to download and thats with broadband.

Anyhow this seems to be a great community with lots of people willing to help out. I'm glad I could contribute.
