How do I get a printed copy of the Emacs manual?
You can order a printed copy of the Emacs manual from the FSF. For details see the FSF on-line store. The full Texinfo source for the manual also comes in the doc/emacs directory of the Emacs distribution, if you’re daring enough to try to print out this several-hundred-page manual yourself (see Printing a Texinfo file). If you absolutely have to print your own copy, and you don’t have TeX, you can get a PostScript or PDF (or HTML) version from http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/ See Learning how to do something, for how to view the manual from Emacs.
