D e s i g n e d b y R o b e r t O l i v e r Introduction Project History The Big Country Book of Lyrics was originally offered online as a PDF file on a web site that later grew into the current Steeltown site. Since I had not been pleased with the formatting restrictions of HTML, I had decided to create a file in Adobe PageMaker and then convert it into a PDF (Portable Document Format) file. This format allows complete control over layout and typography, but can result in very large files. Although PDF files are relatively small compared to their original documents (all of the original PageMaker files for this book total over 18 megabytes), a project as large and comprehensive as the Big Country Book of Lyrics results in an appropriately hefty PDF file. Even though I have since converted all lyrics to HTML and incorporated them into the Steeltown web site, the PDF version is still a handy and useful resource, especially when printed and bound for reference. As ubiquitous as the world wide web has become, a printed version of the Book of Lyrics is easier on the eyes, quicker to thumb through, and does not require an internet connection. Document Navigation The following methods are available for finding your way around the Big Country Book of Lyrics while using the Adobe Acrobat Reader: 1. Scan down the bookmark list on the left and click on the item of interest. 2. Use the keyboard arrow keys or the PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN keys depending on which version of the Acrobat Reader you are using. 3. Use the arrow icons near the top of the document window. 4. Search the table of contents and click on the song title. 5. Use the FIND command under the TOOLS menu to search for any word in the document. What’s with the symbol? The question mark icon located in the bottom right of some pages indicates a song whose lyrics I am unable to confirm because I have either not heard the song, or have not been able to complete research on that particular song.
