Where to find printable study material?

I don't like lugging around whole textbooks and I read slower on screen. I like printing my textbooks out, 1 chapter at a time, and highlighting thru them.

Does anyone know where I can get printable .pdfs of texts?

I'm specifically looking for MCSA 2008 and CCNA 201 material at the moment.

OReilly.com - It'll help for MCSA 2008 but not CCNA as they don't have the Cisco Press books and only have Todd Lammle's 7th Edition.

Safari Books allow you to print off chapters as well.. but they are not PDFs

The books off o'reilly are expensive - almost twice the price of the print versions on amazon. But I guess i'll have to pay an arm and a leg for that convenience I want so bad..

Learnsmart usually has printable material, and at least once a month they all go on sale.

It has been years since I bought from them, but Preplogic had printable flashcards and study guides back in the day. No textbooks, though. You're very unlikely to find one that meets this criteria.

What I have done in the past is buy the kindle version of a book and convert it to .pdf. That way I can then print it out.

I usually create a good set of notes in OneNote my first read through of a chapter and print that off.

I can let you know when I get home. I know its a free program I found using a google search though.
