Hello everyone.

I'm thinking of printing my oval's owners manual.

I find the PDF, but I don't know the actual dimensions of the document.

https://www.thesamba.com/vw/archives/manuals/11_53_bug.php

Anyone who can help me?

Thanks!

When your in a PDF if you hover your mouse to the bottom left of the screen the size of the image will pop up.
(You have to download the PDF to your computer first.)
5.84 x 8.27

5.84 x 8.27

units! (you nits) as my maths teacher would shout. If those are in inches then that seems to be equal to A5 paper size which seems right. (I don't know what that is in imperial, probably half elephant... Laughing )
