As for Lojban for Beginners, two PDF versions can be found here: http://www.tlg.uci.edu/~opoudjis/lojbanbrochure/ Note that there IS a PDF for the reference grammar as well, specifically the master copy sent to the printer. But with several hundred more books to sell, giving it away is not likely to be in our interest, so it was never put on line, and remains in my archives. There is also the edit master, in some then-version of Microsoft Word (very tricky to use because I had to format the entire 600+ page document for the printer's linotype machine, and the idiosyncrasies of that formatting make the pagination and thus the index got screwed up royally with even the slightest change, and it could not be printed on any other printer with proper pagination). There has been enough board turnover that I suspect that some of us may not have been aware of the continued existence of these masters, so I am posting this for institutional memory purposes. lojbab
