It's honest feedback, it's not as though anyone's asking for money back!

I'm sure refund in full would not be a problem :-)

I would like to thank Jim for making this book available and to
comment that it seems ungrateful to criticise layouts and pagination.

OTOH I suppose all the regulars know each other on this group and such
observations may not be unexpected. :-)

It does indeed seem ungrateful, but if I'd written the book I would be
eager to know about any defects in case I could do something about them.
Now Jim has done that.

TBH It just nudged my conscience into getting me to do what I felt I should
have done in the first place. :-)

Actually, very minor thing - while the word search seems to work on
Acrobat on a Mac - it's very erratic using the native Mac pdf viewer
(Preview). Just saying :-)

Can't help with that I'm afraid. :-) I tend to use open source things like
GhostScript, etc, and the specific authoring stuff I use on RISC OS. But
note that the glyph/character mapping varies from one OS to another. So the
'Mac' might be making presumptions about 'spelling' which won't always be
correct. Depends on the glyph/character encoding chosen. Just a guess,
though.

The explanations use various examples like CD Players, etc, to illustrate

Excellent Jim. Many thanks. I have downloaded it for in-flight
reading tomorrow, Much more interesting/informative that the
SAS tax free catalogue:-)

Thanks Jim. Only glanced at it as yet, but nice to see something obviously
RISC OS generated. ;-)

And at only 5kB/page the PDF viewer doesn't half scroll back and forth
quickly.
