Re: iPhone 6 user's guide in text format
It may offer headings and other features that a text file does not, but it is not as accessible to all. Adobe is difficult to use with a screen reader, or needs a lot of modification to be usable. With a straightforward, no frills text file, anyone can read it. --- Be positive!

Re: iPhone 6 user's guide in text format
Yeah, sorry about that. I could have converted the PDF into a text file for you, but I didn't think that's what you were looking for. I've found that if the original PDF has issues, such as images for buttons and the like, then the resulting text file isn't going to be much better. I assumed you were looking for an Apple generated text file for the users guide. It also didn't seem like from your original message you had any trouble getting a PDF file, so I figured you could always dump it into a text file yourself. Your original message made it sound like you were just asuming the PDF would be a bad experience and hadn't taken a look at it yourself, so I didn't think letting you know that it was pretty good was just stating my preference.

RE: iPhone 6 user's guide in text format
I beg to differ here. A properly made PDF file is perfectly accessible and offers features like headings, links and so on which you don't get with a text file. Also, you can't accidently change stuff in it. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of RobH.

Re: iPhone 6 user's guide in text format
Rose, I found that to be true for me as well. especially since I have a 4S. I'll have to check that book out at some point. :) Thanks, Ari On Feb 7, 2015, at 12:55 PM, Rose Combs roseco...@q.com wrote: You can get it in the iBook’s format, easily readable but a lot of photos. Since you are fairly familiar with iPhone the guide may get you through most everything. I also used Kindle to read David Pogue’s book on IOS8 which is more detailed information but he is the one who said you should never have to empty the app switcher, and I have found through experience that at least for Voiceover users, that is an untrue statement. This is based on my own experience with an overcrowded app switcher, and is not any scientific experiment but, I have found that cleaning mine out, especially if anything is not working right is essential.
