I used the method used for creating a PDF for a printed book (OBJAVI II). I did not do the work required to actually make a PDF good enough for a printed book. All I did was take the defaults, and the title page is still in English because I don't know Spanish. However, this PDF may suit your purposes better than what you have now. <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://objavi.flossmanuals.net/books/ActivitiesGuideSugares-es-2011.01.21-18.28.05.pdf">http://objavi.flossmanuals.net/books/ActivitiesGuideSugares-es-2011.01.21-18.28.05.pdf</a> Be sure and copy this somewhere, as I don't think this link will work forever.

It does look much better. I like the multiple formats to download. You should announce this on the lists. Maybe you did and I missed it. These Manuals are an invaluable addition to sugar.

The ones available from the link on the website are good for reading online. The other PDF is the one submitted to Lulu to create bound and printed books. This one might be better for reading on the XO with the Read Activity too. If you want to compare the two kinds of PDF you can check out the PDF at the Internet Archive for "Make Your Own Sugar Activities!": <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.archive.org/details/MakeYourOwnSugarActivities">http://www.archive.org/details/MakeYourOwnSugarActivities</a> The PDF you have included should be OK for your purposes, but I thought you might benefit from knowing about the other kind. The second kind of PDF needs a custom style sheet and a fair amount of manual effort to create, because it will be the basis for a printed book. The Internet Archive is a good second home for any publications we create. For MYOSA I not only posted the PDF, I also generated EPUB and MOBI (Kindle) formats and uploaded them. One of the benefits of the FM software is that it will generate an EPUB, which is easily converted to MOBI using calibre. This means you can have a nice ebook for the Read Activity plus iPad and Kindle.
