Microchip distributes printed copies in the format of a medium sized soft cover book. I would first try to get a printed copy from the local Microchip office before resorting to printing my own. The Microchip office 3 miles down the road from me has a closet where the stock just about every data sheet in production. I think hobbyists can get copies as long as they are not greedy and ask the right way. ***************************************************************** Embed Inc, embedded system specialists in Littleton Massachusetts (978) 742-9014, http://www.embedinc.com -- http://www.piclist.com hint: PICList Posts must start with ONE topic: [PIC]:,[SX]:,[AVR]: ->uP ONLY!
