I like the two colums layout. As for the big pictures we may either
float them on the page or take the screenshots again but at high
resolution so that we can rescale them without losing read-ability.
Since the pdf is for screen viewing we may also (if at all
possible) create hyperlinks to the full size pictures and only
place a thumbnails in the text (just like in the wikis). This could
also address the issue on the number of pictures in the user
guides discussed in another thread (people who do not care can skip
opening the full size pictures.
In general, if creating electronic-only versions of the user guide
we should try to be a bit more creative.

Alternatively, these graphics could be located at the end of the
chapters (possibly hidden? there) and likewise linked (visibly, of
course). The latter way keeps them embedded in their files with the
textual matter.
This idea fits well with Michele's suggestion of thumbnails with
hyperlinks to the full-sized images at the end of chapters/books. The
reader would see the thumbnail and could link to the "real" image if
necessary.
