PDF version of the guide?

Greetings,

First thanks a lot for assembling the guide together.

I'm not sure why the guide is in .tex format and not something widely used/known like .pdf
I'm having to install a 1.8Gig file just to get LatEx to work so I can view the file in the intended manner, which is kind of super inconvenient to say the least.

Is there any way you could render a pdf version of it? I've tried a couple of LatEx -> PDF converters but they never worked.

Thanks

Hey there. Seeing how the guide is 8 months old and I randomly read the email notification of this I decided to help you out on this. I've gone ahead and rendered a pdf version of the guide.

guide.zip

As for the repository maintainer, feel free to include the pdf in your repository.

Hope I was of help! :)

Hi. First of all, I want to really thank you for taking the time and document for all the people passionate about hardware emulation, the steps you took and judgements you made in order to make this happen. This might be the bad place, but could you continue documenting the rest of the stuff that is part of the emulator? In your guide you stopped at the BIOS image showing up, but in the source code there is lots more stuff implemented like 3D handing and CD-ROM handling (which is still a pain for me to understand.
Thanks again!

If anyone is interested, I've created PR #12 with GitHub workflow, that builds and publishes PDF to github-pages
