1.3.3 Using Online Documentation
We provide the bulk of our user and reference documentation in two electronic formats,
HTML and Adobe PDF. We do this for several reasons.
We believe that providing all users with our complete library of product and reference
manuals is a useful convenience. However, printed manuals are expensive to print, stock
and ship. Rather than include and charge for manuals that every user may not want, or pro-
vide only product-specific manuals, we choose to provide our complete documentation
and reference library in electronic form with every development kit and with our Dynamic
C development environment.
NOTE: The most current version of Adobe Acrobat Reader can always be downloaded
from Adobe’s web site at http://www.adobe.com .
We recommend that you use version 4.0 or later.
Providing this documentation in electronic form saves an enormous amount of paper by
not printing copies of manuals that users don’t need.
Finding Online Documents
The online documentation is installed along with Dynamic C, and an icon for the docu-
mentation menu is placed on the workstation’s desktop. Double-click this icon to reach the
menu. If the icon is missing, create a new desktop icon that points to
default.htm in the
docs
folder, found in the Dynamic C installation folder.
The latest versions of all documents are always available for free, unregistered download
from our web sites as well.
Printing Electronic Manuals
We recognize that many users prefer printed manuals for some uses. Users can easily print
all or parts of those manuals provided in electronic form. The following guidelines may be
helpful:
•
Print from the Adobe PDF versions of the files, not the HTML versions.
•
If your printer supports duplex printing, print pages double-sided.
•
If you do not have a suitable printer or do not want to print the manual yourself, most
retail copy shops (e.g. Kinkos, AlphaGraphics, etc.) will print the manual from the PDF
file and bind it for a reasonable charge—about what we would have to charge for a
printed and bound manual.
