Got a Searchable Johnson Service Manual 1922-64?

Hi,

I’ve been working with a PDF I got from WaterCraftManuals.com.    Does anyone have a Searchable version they’re willing to share?

I have an old laptop that runs Ubuntu Linux.  I can’t find software to make my PDF searchable.  I think folks with Windows and Adobe can convert a PDF to a searchable version.

I don’t think there are any copyright issues since I paid my $20 for my watermarked version.  Anybody with this manual knows it’s around 600 pages long, and it can be tough to find what you’re looking for.  Maybe some day I’ll blow through an ink cartridge and print mine, but Geeesh!

Thanks!

why not visit a local printing shop and get them to print it for you. I had mine  printed double sided and spring bound with plastic cover sheets for protection.The main front page  on book #1  was  duplicated and  used  on the second binder just for appearance  reasons.

Did not cost that much  for 2  flat laying books easy to  read … easier than scrolling on a PC  or laptop . You can had tab separators on the 5-6 main sections and…sub-sections if you like.  ex:  Carburators…. TN…CD…AD…QD…FD…RD  etc…   same for magneto section  etc…

Thanks!  That’s a good idea.  I’ll do that so I can have a copy in the garage.

I’d still like a searchable PDF for when I want to find a paragraph to email my friend.  Funny fact, I started this outboard motor hobby but don’t have a boat!  I can use my friend’s small aluminum boat whenever I want, so he provides the boat and trailer and I provide the power.  LOL  His wife hates having the boat in their driveway, even though it has it’s own spot off to the side.  So at least for the summer, the boat lives at my house.  Lucky me!
