- I am trying to create some material which will help me to get the students
- up to speed on schematic capture, simulation, system overview, etc.
-
- There are thousands of pages (it seems) on the cd-rom, viewable on the
- screen via the BOLD reader, and all of these pages can all be printed out.
- That's too much material for the students to absorb in one semester.
-
- Is there some way whereby some of this material can be edited, so I can
- incorporate pieces of this in custom-made documentation for our students?
-
- I see two problems here:
-
- 1. Technical problem: How would I do this? What editor can I use to modify
- the existing pages and add material of my own?
-
- 2. Legal problem: Assuming that item 1 can be done, that leaves the serious
- legal problem of incorporating copyrighted material in such a manual.
- Any thoughts on this one?
