By developing a series of books in an electronic format, we can grow and edit and change as technology advances. We've worked at making these ideas simple to understand and learn.</div> <bR> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 95 WIDTH="324"><div> Concern for both the environment and developing new methods of learning has focused Guides Publishing on the latest concepts in electronic publishing. </div> <bR> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="361"><div> By publishing electronically, the reader will recieve a printable format with specific instructions for their interests. This reduces paper waste and preserves our forests. (It's got to start somewhere - we think it should be here.)</div> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 136 WIDTH="324"><div> 95% of our books are in an eBook format which works on virtually all computer platforms. This method allows us to revise and update various editions to make it a more compatible and useable concept. For example, in our mandolin / music books, if a reader has a better idea for a tune or a technique change, we can implement this change virtually immediately, and advise subscribers the update is available. </div> <bR> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="361"><div> We generally create our books in Adobe Acrobat 6 which is availble as a free download from Adobe.</div> <bR> <div> There may be some books which are done in Acrobat 7.

If you don't have an idea as to where you're going - life can and will be an aimless expression of frustration.  It's time to get your mind and your soul functioning together.
