FYI, the 151 version I made for my own use, as mentioned in a previous post,
is about 40 Mb.
234 MB seems quite big for the file so I'm not surprised yours is smaller. Unfortunately, the one available contains so much "detail" that much automatic compression doesn't seem likely. As I mentioned in another message, my results still seemed quite OK at 196 MB.
It is OCR'ed (not so good) and bookmarked every 50 P/N. Personally I prefer bookmarking over
searching the document.
Depends on the kind of document and the intended use.
Some paper books contain bookmarks (TOC-like) *and* are searchable. Searchable is a kind of virtual xref.
With the component tables, I far prefer them being searchable over having to bookmark them.
Imagine trying to find the Tek number from a JEDEC number in a Tek component number organized list... With HP numbers I find it even worse - in HP lists that is...
You can find a specific P/N just as fast if not faster
with bookmarking.
Depending on the file, bookmarking can be a *lot* of work...
