I'm looking for a printed version, not one on CD.
Where should I look and how much can I expect to pay?
Thanks,

Why not print the CD version? |

Because I use a Mac and the CD isn't compatible. |

It still would be cheaper to pay someone to print it for you. The CD can be had for about $10 the manual is about $70. Find someone with a digital copier hooked to their computer network. |

Where can you get a CD?
Tripp, what kind'a mac you got? I've never heard of a CD not being compatible with a mac. Is it the software? |

Tripp,
I have a DII 2000, and would be interested in splitting any costs regarding getting a copy of the workshop manual?
Regards,
Arman. |

BW - The Rave CD's are Adobe Acrobat so I would think it would work on a MAC. I really can't see why it wouldn't but then I haven't tried it either. |

Here's what I know. I got a CD version and, yes, it is in PDF format, but all of the indexes and tables of contents are in .exe format which the Mac cannot read.
Yes, I could probably print out all of the PDF's and stick them in a binder but I was just trying to see if there was another solution.
I doubt that I want to spend $149 bucks for a bound version. I'll go back and try the CD. Maybe there's a workaround. |

Who has the CD and how can one get one? Is it available online or where can I buy one? EBAY? |

Tripp, there are Mac applications that will emulate Windows and let you open .exe files.
It's worth having both the CD and printed material. I have printed a copy myself and keep a dirty copy in the garage and another copy I take out on the trail. Try and do it on a duplex capable printer. The D2 workshop manual is over 1,100 pages. |

You can run it in virtual PC, but you can not copy the PDFs off and open them directly (on any kind of computer). The RAVE CD uses a modified version of Acrobat Reader. The files must be opened from the CD, using the Reader that is on the CD. |

Tripp,
Let me see if I can print a copy for you. It seems to be about 1400 pages with electrics, 1100 without. Let me see if I can print it off of my machine. Give me a day or so.

Did anybody ever say where to get the CD version? |
