[R-390] Y2K Reprinting

[Bob Camp]

Hi

Once upon a time disk space was a big deal. Having multiple versions  
of anything was not practical.

Like it or not MS Word is a pretty common format. It's what pretty  
much everybody has on their desktop in one form or another.  Keeping  
one version in something like that makes sense.

The PDF printers do work well, printing the .doc to .pdf is a  
reasonable thing to do. I doubt that anybody will sweat running the  
thing over night if that's what it takes (which I doubt).

To me the question is - what else? MS Word is headed off to XML  
format. Having the manual in a HTML like format probably makes sense.  
That would be doubly true for putting the manual up for online browsing.
