I got the cheapo later version of the game, and no documentation
supplied - its all on disk in .pdf files.
Four wheel drift is a beaut, and I'd love to print it but 100 pages of
A4 (Cumbersome)! Has anyone found a way of reformatting .pdfs so that
could, e.g. print 2 A5s side by side on a landscape A4. Odd pages
first, re-feed for even to get doublesided. Hrumph - can't even print
odd or even only in Acrobat!!
I tink lots of people would want to do this, to get the hardcopy they
missed
Tia,

Laurence.
You need a program called "fineprint" (www.fineprint.com) it has
options for printing 2 pages per sheet, 4 pages per sheet and
even 8 pages per sheet. I printed mine on 4 pages per sheet
and it was quite readable.

Some allow multiple pages on a
printed page. My HP932 has this option, but I didn't know it until your post
prompted me to look!

http://www.bluesquirrel.com/ has a more expensive ($50! <choke>) product,
clickbooks 2000 which I found to be a better product. The demo has a five
day evaluation period, and it prints nasty headers and footers, but for a
one off booklet-printing project it's brilliant. I want to buy the full
version but $50 is a little steep for something I only need rarely.
Besides, on my old computer (Acorn) my word processor could do all this
stuff for free, so I resent Word's shortcomings! :-)
