    Revised PDF: LF Book rebirth

    A revised PDF is ready at this new link as:

    http://www.jeromehawkins.com/LF_Book-v2.htm

    I started a new thread because I don't think anyone noticed.

    Please check it out.

    It's 14.1MB but I don't have any way to make it smaller. 72dpi is as small as the PDF creation program I'm using will go.

    Try File --> Reduce file size. That won't help much, but it will help a little.

    That's not a choice I have. (Windows Pro 2000 or XP) Is it a Mac thing?

    Nope. I'm on a PC. What version of Acrobat do you have? Do you have Professional or just reader?

    I just have the reader, ver. 8. I used CutePDF, a freeware program to create the PDF.

    Ok, I got it down to 13.3 MB doing what I suggested. That's as small as it's going to get. Do you want it?

    I indicated earlier that I was setting June 1 as the cut off date for changes, but I have only had a couple of requests since I posted the revised PDF so maybe we don‘t need that long. This evening I uploaded it to Blurb and ordered one book as a test. I should receive it in about a week. My thought was that I would review the initial book and tweak it if it needs tweaking before others invest in a copy.

    However, if anyone wants to order one now I can make it public or I think I can post a way to order it without making it public.

    Soft cover is $36.95 plus shipping ($8.98 ground shipping to St. Louis).
