| ==Copies, prints and reuse==
| |
| To get a printable version of this resource (which can also be downloaded for offline use), go to patholines.org, click [[Starting pathology (handbook)|'''Starting pathology''' (handbook)]], and click [https://patholines.org/index.php?title=Starting_pathology&printable=yes Printable version] in the left hand menu.<ref group=notes>To save a printable version, preferably use the printable version but print it as a PDF, if that option is available. You can then Google "convert pdf to docx" or other editable format if you want to make layout improvements before printing.</ref> A normal color printer and normal paper is sufficient, and you can keep the pages together in a binder. If you want even better quality, use color printer paper, or google a "copy shop" for a color print delivery or in-store pickup (possibly as a photo book).
