I made an effort to make the HTML as simple as
possible so it would print OK, but looking at Print
Preview on my browser, the images don't paginate
properly - some are split over a page-break. Oh
well...
Personally, I found it much easier to write in HTML
than to use Latex or whatever and convert to PDF.
However, if we decide to standardize on a document
format (not a bad idea...) or create a single manual
I'd be happy to convert my tutorial.
