TVP11 - manual to download (pdf)

[Fabrice]

A downloadable archive would be an improvement, indeed. Thx for consideration.

I don't think it would be difficult, will see.

Even if the user manually prints each section , and the user's printer interface gives the option to only print a certain range of pages (say out of a total of 10 pages , you only need to print pages 7 - through - 10 ) , it doesn't work properly with the way the current TVPaint 11 User Manual is formatted. See the attached file as an example: in this case I wanted to print or make a PDF of the section on the Out-Of-Pegs function. If I printed the whole thing it would be a total of 10 pages, including 7 pages that are only the repeat of the User Manual Index ... so I only need to print or convert to PDF the last three pages , 7 - 10 , which include the actual information on the OOP function that I want to print out or convert to PDF . But look what happens: most of page 7 is taken up with the last part of the Index and only a small portion of page 7 is the start of the section explaining the OOP function ... but I need Page 7 to be included , along with Page 8 , Page 9, Page 10, so the section on OOP function is complete. Having the whole Index repeat in front of each section of the User Manual is very frustrating.

Now, it should be easier to print each documentation article.
no more menu on the left side.

Thank you ! This appears to have solved the problem.

btw, we are still investigating to have an archive with all the manuals.

Downloadable right from the software maybe? Plus the web.
So you download the updated version that corresponds to your version of the sofware or the last version.

With the current system somebody with an old version will only have access to the updated manual right?

I've just downloaded the manual from the website for offline reading with the httrack command line tool (Linux). The packet is a bit huge, 455 MB, but cca. 180 MB from this was the tutorial lessons part (tvpp files). It also has a side effect that every page opens first with its Japanese version but can be switched back to English with the English button at the top left section. Maybe this was httrack's fault during the conversion. Anyway, I think it will be good for offline reading.

I think html is nearly as good for offline reading as pdf, only the printing is problematic.

Now it is possible to download an archive (on the homepage http://www.tvpaint.com/doc/tvpaint-animation-11" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) to be able to read the documentation offline

Hi Mike. Thanks for the manual download. I've downloaded it but not sure how to open it. Can you advise. Thanks

[slowtiger]

Double-click the ZIP to unpack. You'll get a folder called "www.tvpaint.com" - I advise to rename this to "TVP manual" or the like and put it at a convenient place on your drive.

Inside this folder, go to /doc/tvp11/index.php@lang=en.html and double-click. This page will open in your webbrowser. Make a bookmark for it.

Excellent thanks @slowtiger! Done!

With some information : for example "Please refrain from access & downloading at the same time".

Pardon my ignorance but, I've downloaded the offline documentation and tried to follow the advice above but, can't find the file in the folder.

/doc/tvp11/index.php@lang=en.html

Could somebody kindly point me to where it might be. I've tried searching for it on the Mac but with no success.
Thank you
