Hello Lynn Fisher,

I am not aware of any PDF which would sum all of available notepads. What do you have on your mind? official mbed notebooks or all handbook?

Provide some ideas, we might consider them ;)

I volunteer teach at a junior/high school. A hardcopy for the students would be nice, rather than having to read the screen. I guess I could print a screen dumps, but an official hardcopy would be better. An official mbed starter tutorial and guide is a good starting place for a PDF file.

Hi Lynn,

The answer is no at the moment.

However, we are planning to improve the documentation in the near future, and we will take hardcopy/PDF versions into account, as we do get this request from time to time.

Thanks.

The doxygen documentation you can make hardcopy yourself if you want. I did it a long time ago, so don't know exactly how it went, but basicly the idea is to download the mbed library sources (http://mbed.org/users/mbed_official/code/mbed-src/), and from http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/ you can download a program to generate the documentation from the doxygen comments.

Of course that is only the doxygen, and not for example handbook pages. Then you would really need an extensive introduction into mbed pdf. Tbh while I can see a pdf sometimes being nice, I don't think having all that documentation as hardcopy is that handy. At least personally I have for my job large amount of documentation as pdf, and being able to directly search in it is for me invaluable.

i think that's not a good idea to have a pdf document of all these,

just like linux's manpages,

nobody would want a pdf of that,

it will be a big burden to own
