Suggestion for Printing Manual

Crown of Glory: Europe in the Age of Napoleon, the player controls one of the crowned potentates of Europe in the Napoleonic Era, wielding authority over his nation's military strategy, economic development, diplomatic relations, and social organization. It is a very thorough simulation of the entire Napoleonic Era - spanning from 1799 to 1820, from the dockyards in Lisbon to the frozen wastes of Holy Mother Russia.

Suggestion for Printing Manual

Post by donkuchi19 »

Everyone may not be able to do this depending on their printer, but what I did was set up my printer to print two pages of the manual on every one page of paper. They printed side by side. (Resolution was 600 dpi color). It saved paper, time, and ink and I don't have to alt-tab or play around to view the manual while playing.

(BTW: I did screw up a little and the pages are reversed with the earlier page on the right and next page on the left but I am going to either fold them or cut them and then bind them)

It is part of the digital download. Look for it either in the start menu under Crown of Glory or on the start screen in the top left corner where it says Manual and Tutorial Manual.

The only problem with that is that I do not have a workable printer at home, and I was hoping to print it at work[:'(] Damn, modern technology!

Thanks SLTx,
I know there are a few of us in the same position, as far as the manual goes. I tried playing last night. I pride myself on being a strategy Guru! However, let's just say I won my tactical battles, but the rest of the game was a shambles! The game has so much potential, but without that manual I may be in trouble![:D]

Only print from page 12 to 74 as that is the most important sections to have at hand...the intro stuff and the strategy/scenario guides do not really need to be printed...it will save quite a few pages if you do that......

I burned the manual to a CD, took it to a copy shop and got a bound b/w copy for $9.
