Please provide PDF downloads for your documentation. This is highly useful for those times where I am not connected to the World Wide Web and wish to learn from the user manuals.

I've posted this in the MaxMSP forum, but this applies to the entire Cycling '74 product line.

I second this as it would be extremely useful for teaching the software.

My workaround in the past has been to go to the
