Giving something back

Some time ago, Otto, of Otto's armory, deseminated a guide to making armour (in WP6 format). Unfortunately, many of the graphics were jumbled, ESP if you didnt have a copy of wordperfect. Well, after some time, and a good bit of work, I fixed (pretty much) the graphics, and some of the alignment. then I made it a PDF.

So, here, without further adeiu,

I get an error on starting the pdf file, something about not finding a colour set (cs6) and other errors are suppressed.
None of the images work for me, I'm using acrobat 3.0 as a viewer.
What pdf editor did you use? Anyoone else have the same problem?

Thanks Rev. George... I really haven't much gotten that book out in a few years. Most of the drawings seem to be OK, but it does lose a little in the translation. Also, some of the armour making techniques listed are ones I no longer use... I really need to re-write books 1 and 2 to incorporate changes and new bits...

Oh, and lastly the e-mail address on book 1 is no longer valid, it should be sbvast@aol.com

Thanks again, that's neat to see. Image

Adobe acrobat 5.0. The problem is likely related to using acrobat 3.0. you might try dl'ing the 5.0 acrobat reader...
