[Milsurplus] RAK AND RAL - Holy Cow!!

[COURYHOUSE at aol.com]

Added note...   yes  when BAMA was started  disk  space    or the lack of 
it was  king  I can see how  this  format  was a winner!  back in 2004 
webhosts were much more  greedy for what they charges  for storage.
 
well between the viewer  program  for the unique   file converter  should I 
want a pdf   this is all  good!
Thanks  Ken for pointing out this online  free conversion   program

Yikes!!!!!!!!!!  ok there are  various  setups of   PDF file  size  but  
that is a difference indeed.. maybe  someone  up on PDF  structure can comment 
on what is  going  on?
 
Will do  Ken!
Thanks  for the heads up!

OK. I  just ran my DjVu RAK manual, which is about 1.2 MB in the DjVu 
format  through a free on-line converter at www.djvu2pdf.com


The  resulting PDF file is ove 40 MB.(!!!!) I cannot send that via e-mail. 
I can  put it up on my website and you can download it from there. However, 
I  suggest, rather, that you simply download the DjVu file from the BAMA 
mirror  and convert it yourself. It is certainly quicker.


This  certainly demonstrates how effective the DjVu format is as opposed to 
the  PDF format!!!
