The PS documentation is badly formatted, and distilling it
to PDF resulted in less than satisfactory print quality. I
got the "unauthorized" PDF version as a result of posting
a request for a well-formatted version in this newsgroup
(not so many weeks ago).

A valid point, Pascal. However, ACT surely can be blamed
for the poor quality PS documentation, what? :-( Perhaps
it's a result of this wanting quality that forced the
creation of "unauthorized" PDF documentation.
