    Can someone tell me how in the heck you print out the parts manual on Planetary's website? I want to print out the 1962 Williams parts catalog. Also, when viewing online, how do you turn off that annoying "page flipping" feature so I can thumb through faster? Having a pdf file would be better because then I could select what pages to print.

    Wow, that's too rich for my blood!

    Quoted from snakesnsparklers:

    For whatever reason PPS is forcing you to view the manual on their website only and they do not want people downloading or printing.

    I want to be able to print out the drawings of the stepper units so I can write on them how many turns of the torsion springs and which direction they are wound. I take the steppers apart for thorough cleaning and oiling. The camera I have is a piece of crap and almost always takes pictures out of focus.

    That silly "turning the page" feature really slows down trying to thumb through their manuals. There are times when I want to print out one of the drawings to be able to write the new part numbers next to the old numbers. Remember, over the years some Williams parts had their numbers changed!

    Quoted from snakesnsparklers:

    Your best bet is to get the part of the drawing you want on screen (use the full screen option to show more) and then do a screenshot and print that out.

    The problem is the resolution is sometimes very bad. Sometimes I can't make out the part numbers or the pictures are smeary from low resolution scanning.
