How many printed sides of paper are there in the Help Manual (1 page = 2 printed sides)?
The reason I ask is that I want to buy a display book with plastic pockets so I can refer to the Manual
away from my PC, but need to estimate the size of display book I need to purchase...
Thanks

2008 - Asus X71Q (2cores) ~ Intel T3200@2.0GHz - LL4.6/Win8.1 dual-boot, LL works fine with kernel 4.15
2007 - Dell Latitude D630 (2cores) ~ Intel T7100@1.8GHz - LL4.6, works well with kernel 4.4; 4.15 doesn't work

Choose Print from your Browser menu and it should show you the number of pages to print.

Thanks Jerry - I've got the answer - quite a tome with a grand total of 238 printed sides!
For what it's worth to anyone interested, the breakdown for the number of printed sides for each section
of the LL user manual, was as follows:
Start = 15; Install = 38; Network = 14; Software = 51; Hardware = 45; Tutorials = 28; Customize = 40
Glossary = 7
I notice user manuals have been published for Ubuntu and Linux Mint and you can find these on Amazon.
In a similar vein, why not publish the Linux Lite manual - it would be a great way of getting the distro out
there to the target audience. It would also be easier to have a neatly bound publication than to print out
238 sides spread over three display books - just an idea, though I think I know already what you will say
to this...

I think e-books are a great idea, Dave. I think it's good though to have any publication of the LL manual available in both forms
to suit individual reading preferences, i.e. hard copy vs. e-copy.
