 Manual formats
 --------------
 
 The LilyPond manuals generally come in three formats: split HTML, big
 HTML and PDF. Split HTML is good for reading online.  Big HTML (and some
 of these can be very big) contains the whole manual in a single page.
 PDF is available for downloading and using offline.  To get to these 3
 formats, follow the links that read ‘details of’ and then the manual
 name.
