Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

Hey Mark,

  You can send the jpg's to me and I'll make a PDF or you can make it 
yourself by getting a PDF maker. There are several places for free 
the best one being:

http://www.pdfforge.org   

This is a free Sourceforge download and it works well for crunching 
the file size to a manageable level. 

Scan them using a grayscale setting so the grayed out areas come out 
readable. You may have to play around to get it just right. Don't 
save them in color they're too big. You want around 100Kb to 200Kb 
per page. If it's a pain to scan it Kinko's does it here in the U.S. 
but I'm not sure how much.

Thanks for offering! Narfman
