Comparing the HP41 and HP48 (RPN/RPL subject)
Message #1 Posted by Vieira, Luiz C. (Brazil) on 26 Feb 2006, 9:15 p.m.

Hi;

I decided to check the PDF file I let available related to the HP41 and HP48 comparison, and I saw that the file was created with the Acrobat Creator V3.0, and I forgot to set the `Save TTF character definitions` option when it was generated. So, some characters do not look as they should. I created it again, but now I used Acrobat Creator 7. Unfortunately, the final version is 650MBytes long... It could be smaller if I redraw all graphics, and I intend doing it later.

Well, here it is, the newer file.

Cheers.

650 megabytes!? Guess I'll have to burn it to a CD before I re-read it =)

By the way, the expression 2^3 appears like 23 to me (very first example). I might be the only one, though...

Oops! Wrong file size...

Hi Han, all;

after reading Han's post I realized I keyed in a "M" instead of a "K" (they are closed to each other in the keyboard, but it is not an excuse... My fault). Please, correct it: it is actually 650KBytes. Sorry!

And Han, thanks for your feeedback. I'll correct the file. Maybe there are other typos because I mainly used an OCR and correct it later, with the unvaluable help of a spell checker. Some mistakes might not be detected, though.

Cheers.

Luiz --

Thanks for the file scan! I'll admit that I was discouraged from even attempting to download a 650-MB file...

Regards,
