* Does ConTEXt manual also exist in a printer-friendly layout ? @ 2009-09-05 15:38 Julien Rouiller 2009-09-07 6:57 ` luigi scarso 0 siblings, 1 reply; 10+ messages in thread From: Julien Rouiller @ 2009-09-05 15:38 UTC (permalink / raw) To: ntg-context Hi, I'm new to ConTEXt. I downloaded the misc documents and start reading the manual. After having read about 50 pages, I find all this very interesting, but is there a more printer-friendly version of the manual ? The screen-oriented layout of the documents is nice to show what ConTEXt can do, but my eyes soon get tired when reading long documents on a screen. I also don't need the navigation links when printing the manual. Thanks.

I know that PDF are printable, but the main manual (cont-eni.pdf in English) has much redundant information for printing, like all the navigation links. I would like saving paper with a layout better adapter for printing. With only the text of the chapters that displays on the left side and if possible in portrait-oriented A4 format. Is there some way keeping only the main text and reshaping the paper with Ghostscript/GSView, Scribus or such tools ? Was this job already done by some user ? Thanks.
