TO PRINT THIS DIRECTORY IN BOOKLET FORM:This directory is in A5 format. That is, it is half the size of an A4 sheet and the fi nished booklet should

fi t in your glove box.The fi le is already what Printers call, “imposed”. That is, the pages are arranged so that they will form

a 20 page booklet which can be stapled down its spine. You will notice that the back page (p.20) is on the same sheet as the cover.

If you have a really fancy printer, just follow the instructions for double sided printing. If you have an HP like mine, you go to “Print” and click on the drop-down box saying “All pages in range”. Choose “odd pages only” and print. Take note of whether the “top” of the page is on the right or left side before putting these printed pages back in the printer face down. Print again choosing “even pages only” and also choosing “reverse pages”. Twenty pages, printed on both sides, is only fi ve A4 sheets so if you get it wrong the fi rst time, it is not a big deal to do it again.

The booklet can be printed in greyscale but you will lose the colour coding for the States.The booklet can then be assembled in page order, folded down the middle and stapled or fastened in

some other way. It is planned to update this directory on this web site as other suggested listings come in. Please send

any such suggestions to margaret@gillings.com Margaret Gillings (Ed.)

Federal Web Site: http://www.rroc.org.au For help with technical problems and sourcing spare parts, it can also be very rewarding to visit the Club Federal website. The Australian RR Forum has subsections for the various models and usually has detailed discussions from enthusiasts around the world on technical problems. No password is needed for this forum but it helps to register as a user. There is a “Technical Library” also with subsections for the various models. These include such things as wiring diagrams. This web site is where you will fi nd Concours d’Elegance Judging Guidelines for Conditions of Entry and Judging Rules. The “Members Only” section of the website does need a password but has a very obvious place for you to register. It has past editions of Praeclarum and L&D. TEE ONE TOPICS is an invaluable technical resource. There is an index to the topics covered.
