Converting OS/2 docs/manual into PDF format ready for printing purposes

(1/2) > >>

Hi all,
The Italian community of OS/2 users would planning the conversion of most of the manuals in "inf/hlp" format for the development tools available on our platform into printable pdf format, ready for printing purposes by developers, to facilitate their wonderful efforts. We believe it is an excellent initiative, because the classic paper book is always useful and sometimes faster than internet to navigate and it should be always available for a developer.
If the initiative is welcome, we need a list of the main most used toolkit or otherwise most requested.
We will upload all on Hobbes.
Regards

Once time ago, I uploaded INF files from OS/2 Toolkit to Hobbes but admin deleted them as copyrighted material  :)

muffetta:
I also considered that, so for quite some material this would not be possible.
Sergey, a list of "what" could be possible to convert and upload?

dbanet:
I think obeying the copyright law isn't the only possibility. If PDFs of OS/2 documentation are needed by someone (which is the first thought to be considered: do not do valueless job), they will be welcome even if they are not perfectly legal.

muffetta:
Do you think that we should try? Maybe Martin could suggest something. He knows sure more about, talked before with IBM.
