Product Catalog?

[gregernest]

A couple weeks ago I found a PDF version of the full figure range on the website. 

Now I can't find it anymore...     (and I'm cursing myself for not saving a backup copy). 

Where can I find it again?  Or is it down for an update?

It's still there somewhere, lurking down the pages in the 'General Pendraken' section.  I un-stickied it, which means that it no longer stays at the top of the board, as I'm currently working on the 2012 version.  Hopefully I'll have that done in the next day or two (cos I need a load for York on Sunday!), so once it's done, I'll pdf it, and put a new link up!

I will be waiting for that catalog (but my wallet doesn't want me to look at it xd) go on, Leon!

Would folk like it formatted so that it can be printed off and stapled together in a booklet?  Ie. page 1 next to page 56, page 2 next to page 55, etc?

Couple of problems with that, Leon. First, you need a long-throw stapler to reach the centre of the booklet. Second, and more importantly for us oldsters - it will reduce the size of the typeface. Means I'll have to buy a stronger pair of reading glasses.

Oh, and doesn't it mean the pages would have to be duplex-printed (i.e. front and back)?

I suggest you go for standard layout. Lots of printers now offer print in booklet style for any doc.  So a standard format can be printed both ways.

/agree

Even in out house we can make that booklet style in our printer options.

But thanks for asking, I like the point of knowing that pendraken stuff reads our posts and do cares a bit 

[Leon]

OK, we'll go for standard then.  I was actually asking 'cos I was being lazy, and the pdf automatically formats to the booklet style which we print off for our catalogues!  I'll see if I can figure out how to change it.

You mean not everyone has a massive stapler sat on the desk next to them?!     I hadn't thought of that...

You could duplex print, but it's just as easy to print the odd pages and throw the paper back in for the evens.

Any update/info on the catalog? Will it have photos of everything?    (pls Leon, go to this topic when you have some time, thx!!)

The catalogue is all done, I just need to get it formatted into the right type of pdf for people to print.  There aren't any pics in it though, it's just the lists of all 3300 products.

I've made a note of the photo request, I've not had time to do any photo's for quite a while though.  I'm sure the codes you are looking for are on the Forum somewhere, but the search isn't bringing them up.

[kerath]

Uh ok, thanks.

PS: 3300 products?? If someone takes Pendraken as a collectible stuff, is going to have a very hard time.. xd

Yep, you can have one of every code for the bargain price of £8,000!!!   (ish!)

It would be interesting to see who, other than Dave or Leon, has purchased the most range codes.

I have Confed and Union ACW, WWII Early War German, late war German, French, British, US D-Day Paratroopers, US Vietnam, NVA, 1870 Prussian, 1870 French, 1860s Italians, ECW, 30 years war (I think that's about it).  That's quite a broad spectrum but somehow I suspect there a many others who can cover much more.
