All of our manuals are run on a Zerox Docutec, and i see no reason why we could not run a few dozen manuals if there are enough people that want them. I had a translator trnaslate the frist couple of chapters of the current "Tauchmedizin" for my own use. If you can obtain permission for a translation and printing, I think I could get the rest of it trnaslated as well. Christopher M. Parrett, President, Abysmal Diving Inc.
