I was quickly grabbing a few LDR files of christmas related things for my
kids to build next year, and was printing them on the only cheap printer we
have which is a b/w laser, but of course the colours are impossible to
decipher.
Is there anything that does colour hints (ie fly outs from the bricks with a
letter for the colour or something??
OR is there something I am missing??

I am not aware of any current application that will do callouts with a
letter for the color. I think you are the first person I read/see/hear that
has brought this issue up. =0

This is an old issue.
All the building instruction books that Syngress has published are black and
white. LPub supports this by indicating color in the part list images.
|
Does anyone have an application in the works that can do the above?
|
LPub.

Michael, how are you printing the images of the instructions? From the
output via MLCad? Perhaps you could save the files to a CD or disk and go to
kinkos for color printouts. Might be a bit pricey but you can use the
cheapest color prinout option they have. Or how about just leaving the files
on the PC and having them view the instructions from there. Yes, I know not
the best solution.
Larry P or Steve B. you boys have probably the most experience with printing
out instructions. Your thoughts on the matter?

I have a bit of experience here as well.
