Martin,

A Fronimo file doesn't take up much space at all. I think it is up to you,
of course, but a Fronimo file would be handy, especially for those who like
to change from Italian to French tab, or reorganise the page turns to suit
themselves. That said, I am very inconsistent on my own site, sometimes
forgetting to upload the Fronimo file.

 Dear All,

 I've just been creating PDF versions of all the files in the Piece of the 
 Month archive (they're not online yet) but it occurs to me that there's 
 really no need to supply Fronimo and Tab files as well.  The only advantage 
 is that you can tweak the format to exactly how you like it - but that seems 
 a high price to pay in terms of space.

My rough estimate is that pdf and mp3 files are about ten times as big as 
the tab files from which they have been generated; I don't know about 
Fronimo.  In other words, peanut In terms of space.

Peter.

 So how about just a PDF for each piece, plus MP3 if/when I get around to 
 recording it?

 Best wishes,

 Martin
