After (prematurely) suggesting a pdf version I discovered there is one, at the following url: http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/src/inkscape.pdf
This will be a lot more useful to me since I like to put all significant software manuals in three ring binders.
Thanks to Tav for the effort!
Actually, that was unintentional. The pdf version is not up to date. It also has some formatting errors.
I had a publisher accept the book but they backed out without explanation a few weeks later. Rather than continue to look for a new publisher, my thinking at this point is to provide the possibility to download a pdf file or have a book printed through Lulu.com. The advantage of this is that the book will probably be cheaper. The disadvantage is that there won't be professional editing or formatting of the book. Nor will it be promoted as a true publisher would.
I am thinking about making the book available in the following formats:
Download (A4) $5-$10 Download (US Letter) $5-$10 Black and White book (A4): $16-$20 Color book (A4): $48-$52
You'll notice that the color version is much more than the black and white. This is due to the much greater cost of printing color (15 cents a page vs. 2 cents a page). Any thoughts on this?
I will leave the pdf file where it is for a few days while I mull over the possibilities.
