Thank's to AlfaRomeo's .doc version I've had a go at improving the formatting and preparing a .pdf version that will be easier to print out. It's in the zone to download. Edits included:
- tired to correct the worst of the OCR errors (hopefully not introducing too many more of my own!) - paginated the document at the appropriate page breaks - optimized the margins for printing double-sided in a binder This is just a draft and I'd still like to include some of the missing figures. Not having the original hardware reference manual myself makes this difficult. I wonder if anyone would have the time or interest to send me cropped scans or even hand drawn versions of any of the following figures? Figure (page) 1-1 (11) 3-6 (44) 3-8 (50) 3-12 (63) 3-23 (76) 3-24 (78) 4-2 (96) 4-5 (99) 4-9 (113) 4-11 (116) 5-1 (131) 5-3 (139) 5-4 (149) 5-8 (162) 6-2 (167) 6-3 (172) 6-8 (184) 6-9 (190) 6-13 (194) 7-2 (203) 7-3 (206) 8-1 (222) 8-5 (230) 8-7 (236) 8-8 (237) 8-9 (249) 8-10 (249) Also, does anyone know which edition of the manual I have here? Please give me any comments you have so I can improve the draft Looking forward to bringing the hardware reference manual back to life ![]() Anding |

@AlfaRomeo
- Many thanks for the pictures. Sorry to be a pain, but do you have any other kind of archive available? I can't unpack .rar with the software on my Windows XP machine (handles .zip) nor with the utilities in AmigaKit (handles .lha and a few others). Would be grateful if you could re-zip and re-zone ![]() @xpect - I'll try a few sample pages justified and upload them perhaps. Basically the courier font is fixed width so and I'm not sure how it will come out. Of course I could change font too (except for the figures). What font would you suggest? |

I think for code and ASCII graphics examples you should stick with the current fixed font of course.
If you ask me for a Truetype font any standard one. Verdana is a personal favorite for readability. But you should try other and see the effect. Arial, Tahoma... EDIT: Pics on the zone in zip format Anding, but you can install WinRAR which is a great tool (Thanks AlfaRomeo for the original upload) Last edited by AmigaFriend; 06 December 2008 at 21:43. |

I'm still reformatting the PDF manual in a better font, etc. It's a bit slow work (line by line), but please be patient and I'll be uploading a much prettier version soon.

Revised version of the Amiga Hardware Manual in PDF format now in the zone:
- Updated fonts and typesetting - Inserted figure images - Optimized for printing double sided on A4 I'm hoping this is just about done but let me know if there are any revisions I need to make. Enjoy and Happy Easter! Anding |

Hate to be a drudge here - but any chance someone could re-up this? I checked the FTP server and the zone... I guess it dropped out of both filelists. I could use the printable pdf version for when I'm stuck at home after the surgery
