One request regarding the manual I would like to make.  Don't put a copyright anywhere on it (in the PDF file).  Would this be a problem since you don't intend on offering printed manuals?

The print shops around here will not print a document from a PDF file if it has a copyright indicated on it.   I can't find anyone (FedEx Kinko's, etc.) who will print my motorcycle service manuals because Suzuki (or whoever) puts a copyright note on the first page.  I could probably find someone to do it if I searched around enough but I just print the pages I need ... I don't want to burn up a cartridge or two to print a hundred page (or 200 or 300 page) doc at home; plus my old printer is not a high volume device

I thought Erik a year or two ago made a statement that all 'new' games would come with a printed manual?? He even said a lot of the old ones would be updated with printed manuals as well, but, I haven't seen that come to fruition either.

killroyishere,

See post #17 above. As Richard says BFTB will come with a printed manual.

If push comes to shove modify the pdf file to remove the copyright so you can print it.
