I should maybe specify that when I say "print" I tend to mean "print-friendly," i.e. PDF. We physically print a half dozen copies of our manuals, mostly for use by our team, but that's all. (And we get to punch and bind them ourselves! Gotta save money, y'know.)
I like to think that a well-organized document remains so regardless, but others here think that it will make a significant difference in how we deal with the material if we consider it a "book" as opposed to an online reference system, so we're looking into it a little bit before we start what promises to be a mammoth project. (Whee! :-)
Thanks for the thoughts, guys!
