Create pdf files from users reviews.
« on: August 12, 2013, 11:09 AM »
FOG owners,

I don't have all the festool tools (yet), but when I am thinking to buy a new tool.  I  try to use the search option to look for a specific tool review and sometimes an old review  shows on the list.

I open the post and some pictures from the review are missing.  I understand they belong to the guy who took it, but Could we ask them at the moment to post if they want those pictures to be available for use by any member of the FOG?

If they agree, then it will be a good idea to make a pdf from the whole review and attach it on a sticky, so it can be accessible for anyone in the future, even if the picture owner, remove the pictures from their hosting site.  FOG admin can request the users by PM the use of the pictures from old posts, the option requesting the use can be available for new postings.

I can even try to help creating the pdf files from existent reviews, if the owner agrees to this.

I think it is a good idea. i.e. a bump up from Brice post about the MFS guides review, that one doesn't have the pictures anymore.

I hope this one can be done!
There is never a situation where it can't be done with the right hand tool - even though it may be a lot more work.

Some pictures in old reviews/posts may be gone for good due to a variety of circumstances.  If anyone spots missing pictures from anything I posted, please let me know and I will try to restore them.
