PDF Version of the manual

[fractalsoup]

Is there a PDF version of the Symphonic Choirs Manual available for download? I could not see one on any of the DVDs or anywhere on the website. This is not the FAQ PDF I want but the full version of the manual as PDF. Thanks.

I delivered the SC manual to them as a PDF, from which they created the printed booklet, but it's my understanding that EWQL is trying to limit electronic copies of the documentation as a way to make it harder for software pirates. So it's my guess that you will not be able to acquire a PDF copy. That's just one more way that software piracy makes life more difficult for us all.

So if I purchase Choirs, EWQL wont give me the manual included?? and i wont be able to download it?? i post in other topic section, and a moderator told me that he could give a copy of the manual once i show him i really purchase the product... (im gettin Gold this week, hope so).... And i think its a good way to stop piracy... Once i get Gold, and the gave me the manual, i wouldnt share it with some guy who hasn buy the product, and if he has, he can request it... so, i think thats a good idea,, contact one of the moderators here and maybe they give your .pdf manual... Just an idea... hope this help.

To clarify what I said, there are different situations for Symphonic Orchestra (original version) on the one hand, and Symphonic Choir and SO Pro XP on the other hand.

1. The original Symphonic Orchestra did not have a comprehensive printed manual in the box. Therefore, the producers are making the Guide available to registered users as a PDF. You can receive your electronic copy by sending your SO serial number to Doug Rogers or Stefan Podell in a Private Message (PM) on this forum.

2. Symphonic Choirs does have a complete printed manual in the box. Therefore, everyone who buys the software has a copy of the manual. There is no similar offer to send a PDF to any registered user who requests one.

3. The Professional Expansion packages also contain a complete 213-page manual in the box. (This manual is based on the PDF mentioned in #1 above, and adds detail about the Pro XP packages.) Here, too, there's no offer to send out electronic copies because all authorized users already have a copy.

4. At some point, the packages for the original Symphonic Orchestra will start to include this same 213-page manual in the box. (This printed manual is written to apply to both the original and the Pro versions.)

NOTE: Original posting of this message has been edited to remove the statement that PDFs might be sent if requested. I've been told that for any product in which the printed manual is in the box there is no possibility of getting the manual in PDF format.
