Subject:        Microsoft manuals available on the web
 
I discovered that many of the product manuals that Microsoft has
distributed through Recording for the Blind and Dyslexic are now
also available directly from its web site.  These include
documentation on the Office 97 suite, which ships with a lot of new
computers.  Below is an excerpt from the web page that lists the
manuals available for download.  I've left the Lynx references so
that people can retrieve a particular manual by its URL.

   Linkname: Product Documentation in Accessible Format
        URL: http://www.microsoft.com/enable/products/docs.htm
 
 
   If you have difficulty reading or handling printed materials, the
   documentation for many Microsoft products is also available in other
   formats to make them more accessible. Most information on using a
   product is available through the Windows Help system that is part of
   the Windows and Windows NT operating systems. Some products also
   include their full printed documents on the CD-ROM that comes with the
   package.
 
   For some products, documentation is available separately as ASCII text
   files or on audio tape. You can download some of these titles from
   this Web site, or order them by phone, fax, or mail. Instructions are
   included below.
 
   In the future, Microsoft intends to include accessible documentation
   with every product, either on the product CD-ROM or for download over
   the Internet. Our goal is to make the standard electronic
   documentation fully accessible, so there is no need for a special
   version, no delays, and no extra cost for customers with print
   impairments.
 
Titles Available For Download
 
   The following titles were prepared for Microsoft by Recording for the
   Blind & Dyslexic. Each package contains one or more titles as ASCII
   text files. Notations have been inserted to indicate paragraph breaks,
   headings, illustrations, tables, and other things that might otherwise
   be difficult to recognize.
