can I suggest that the download name of the AUG is changed to something like "ActinicAdvancedGuide_8-v1-02.zip" (with the version number somewhere within the title)
We all end up downloading the guide and getting confused which version is which when we look at the file names (I know we can rename it upon download)

it would be nice to have the AUG as an online facility, so instead of having to download it we can just search it online. Then we can be sure to have the latest version all the time

Also, would help to have a seperate updates file, with just new and changes from first full version.
Having printed off all 130+ pages of the V8 AUG, I really don't want to reprint the lot to get anything new, so could really use an 'updated pages only' file.

Yep - a good siggestion. I will implement that with the next release. For now, the version number is always on the front page of the guide - use it to check you are looking at the latest version.

Plans are afoot for something of this nature.

That's what this thread has been designed to do - but I take your point. TBH, the AUG is constantly changing and evolving, so this would be tricky to do. Really, the whole thing should be online (the Word doc dates from a time when any kind of template editing was seen as 'advanced') so it always stays up to date.
