Subject: [Rhodes22-list] Updated Rhodes 22 Owner's Manual

There's been a 2006 version of the Rhodes 22 owners manual in website document library, probably since around 2006.  It was a PDF with images of the manual's pages rather than the actual document text.  

Our own Michael McKay saw there was room for improvement, so he took it upon himself to put the page images through some OCR software to convert the images to text.  He put the text into a Word document, and then turned the Word document into a PDF.

There are two primary advantages to the new format.  1) It is much smaller, so it will load in your browser more quickly.  2) It is searchable.  

You can find a link to the new Owner's Manual here: http://www.rhodes22.org/doc-lib.html

I taking a look at the new Owner's Manual, I realized that I'd forgotten how well written and informative it is.  I plan to find time to read it again this winter.

So, thanks to Mike McKay for making to changes to the document, and to Mike Weisner for making the changes to the website.  I had no hand in the process except for writing this post.
