The 18F452 manual (DS39564B) is a puny 5.74MB, and merely 332 pages / 166 sheets = 19mm thick = nails (nicely done though) Just out of interest, the Midrange Reference Manual (DS33023A) is 688 pages yet is just a 2.64MB pdf. And perfectly readable too. That implies the 18C RM could be shrunk to 3.75MB. If you use a utility like FinePrint you could halve the number of sheets needed by printing two A5 pages per side -- http://www.piclist.com hint: To leave the PICList .....piclist-unsubscribe-requestKILLspam@spam@mitvma.mit.edu>

The printer I'm using supports two up printing but one of the reasons for printing it is to make it easier on the eyes. :-) (and because it's tough to juggle a laptop on your lap in the can) --{Original Message removed}

> (and because it's tough to juggle a laptop on your lap in the can) Gee, thanks. There's an image to try and erase before I have dinner ;-) Have you tried double-sided sticky tape ? You'll get a free wax too ! Or maybe leave it there to hold your pants up I've found FinePrint does pretty good rendering of 1/2-size print. It depends a lot on the font of the original of course and how hard you need to study what's been printed, but for a reference manual I'd have thought it would be a passable solution. A few seconds on the print and then a few minutes (ha !!!) on the PIC -- http://www.piclist.com hint: To leave the PICList piclist-unsubscribe-requestKILLspammitvma.mit.edu>

Picked it up a the Embedded Systems Conference a year or two back (when the PIC18s were just being introduced, I think.) So you OUGHT to be able to get one from your favorite sales rep, or something like that...

Thanks! I was looking for confirmation that they exist before chasing it. -------Original Message------- From: William Chops Westfield <EraseMEbillwspam_OUTTakeThisOuTCISCO.COM> Sent: 06/15/03 01:29 AM To: PICLISTspam_OUTMITVMA.MIT.EDU Subject: Re: [PIC]: Hard copy of 18C ref manual > > > PIC18C MCU Family Reference Manual > Anyone know of a way to get this 976 page beast without printing > and binding it yourself?

If you're willing to pay for it, call Kinko's (or your local copy-center) and tell them what you want. Email the link to them, they'll download, print and bind, then go pick it up. And pay. I email them my PCB layouts to be printed on transparency. Cheers, -Neil. -- http://www.piclist.com hint: To leave the PICList RemoveMEpiclist-unsubscribe-requestTakeThisOuTmitvma.mit.edu>

My local office has a large closet with shelves dedicated to printed manuals, so others probably have too. On the other hand, I've done lots of PIC projects and never used that manual nor wished I had it. I find the individual data sheets to be sufficient. ***************************************************************** Embed Inc, embedded system specialists in Littleton Massachusetts (978) 742-9014, http://www.embedinc.com -- http://www.piclist.com hint: To leave the PICList spamBeGonepiclist-unsubscribe-requestspamBeGonemitvma.mit.edu>
