Checklist in kneepad?

Postby VOHY_VO0I » Wed Jul 06, 2005 9:39 am

Hello,

I have various checklists which are available in .pdf and other formats. Now, is there any possible way i can have them in the 'kneepad checklist'.

The default aircrafts have their checklist installed in the kneepad. So how can i do it for addon aircrafts?

Any help is gladly appreciated.

....you can use text files either......save your text file (or HTM) file with an appropriate name in the aircraft folder of your choice.....the default 172 for example is... cessna172sp_check.htm.........then open the aircraft.cfg file and look for the line    kb_checklists=    and add the name of the file you just made..........172 example is...    kb_checklists=Cessna172SP_check   but as gr31 says DON'T add the file extension here...........sorry gr31.....your idea but just trying to make it a little clearer for VO................commoner ;)

Thanks a million guys,

I tried the software which Andy recommended but for some reason it did not convert the file properly. Only one page was readable and the rest was not.
So i myself converted a txt document into a web page and now it all works fine.


Vohy,

P.S - Thanks Commoner for the example.
