[Elecraft] re: printing new manual

[Ken K3IU]

Hi David:
Adobe Reader (Don't know about other PDF readers) has a print scaling 
option to "Fit to Printable Area" which is determined by whatever size 
paper you have selected.  So I guess the answer to your question is 
"yes," it is possible.

Additionally, would a shortened version giving only operational requirements be much of a saving? I'm thinking of omitting assembly stuff for instance.
