The first version I saw, all of 18 months ago, was 1.26 or some such. The one I was most recently working with was 2.32. If you ftp the emacs manual, this one should do it. You may have to make some changes, depending on your fonts locally - I had to change a couple of references to cmb10 to cmbx10 before it got happy. Still gave acceptable results on the emacs manual. I think prep.ai.mit.edu has that version, either standalone or as part of the emacs kit. Regards, Max J.
