nothing but blank pages here, too. Makes me suspect that iSEDQuickPDF was somehow involved in creating the manual. There are known incompatibilities with iSED and acrobat 7.0.

Here's a copy of the original - I believe it's pre PB4 since it's dated June 19, 2005.

I don't have unlimited bandwidth, so please only take it if you really want a copy. It comes in at close to a MB.

Blueznl! Your homepage was the main reason for me to buy Purebasic - if the information would be also available in *.pdf or *.hlp format that would be awesome! :wink:

Is that dracflamloc's work? It's pretty good, an interesting read for sure.

Nice one.

Is there something wrong with the font? It looks somewhat fuzzy on my screen, as if you have used a bitmap font instead of a truetype one...

I just zoomed in, and yes, it's definitely 'jaggy'. What did you do?

Thanks for the link. I got the manual and can print it or the pages that I need.


About visual artifacts, I do not see any. I'm using the Foxit reader though
since I had open a different PDF file in Acrobat reader 8 and there were jaggies.

I did use AA Reader 8 for this though. Try Foxit Reader

** I zoomed in to 600% and saw nothing. It may be the reader you are using.

600% is not enough to see it.
