I have a customer who compiles large manuals by pulling together a series of
separate sections as required for a specific installation. This is presently
done by photocopying hard copy. He would like to convert everything to pdf
format and have an on-screen checklist for selecting the sections to be
printed for a specific manual. Any suggestions on how to set up a menu
system like this?
The Xerox rep who sold them the networked copier they use for printing is
pushing their DocuShare system as the answer to any document organization
problem but I don't see how it helps in this case. As I understand it,
DocuShare is a Web-based system for making all sorts of finished documents
available online. Any thoughts on this?
Please copy me directly as I receive the digest. Thanks.
