Is there actually a hard-copy book for ConTeXt? I am using the PDF, 300+
page manual, and it is rather difficult to continually navigate wtih a
PDF viewer. I know I could print out the PDF document, but by the time I
figure in toner cost and paper cost and the cost to bind it at a local
shop, it would be worth it for me to buy a book. 

Thanks

Paul

That's great news.  I've really wanted a book on ConTeXt.  I'm getting
tired of seeing a bunch of books on LaTeX but none on ConTeXt.  I'd pay
dearly for a well-written book on ConTeXt,
