Is Schaff and Piano tek the only ones who do a catalog?

[Kent Swafford]

David is correct to suggest a .PDF catalog. The PTG keeps many  
documents in computer form ready for the next printing, but  
distributes the electronic version itself as well. This dual "print  
on demand"/electronic distribution policy saves money and is  
convenient to those of us accustomed to doing all our business on the  
computer.

If it isn't a file on my computer, I don't really have it. Hard copy  
just isn't the real thing.  8^)
