I'm think of tidying up (my lack of) procedures in making data sheets
and documentation.

And again I'm a bit lost

I lke the format that www.rane.com or Jim Williams's stuff on
www.linear.com , ie text, PCB layout and schematics in the same PDF
data***.

How do I export/print to file diagrams from my Accel sch/pcb package.
I can use a facility like pdf995 (printer look alike software) to
produce a pdf file, that I can zoom into without loss of resolution.
(the buzzword is Scalable Vector Graphics, according too google)

I dont have micro$oft word, just wordpad and Open Office. OO is not
exactly intuative, but can OO do this sort of thing? If so, how?
Should I hire a typist? Do I have to blow the cobwebs off my
creditcards? How many puns can John Woodgate find here?

Thanks

martin
