Finally got round to sorting through my XJS Folder, so uploaded them to MediaFire https://www.mediafire.com/folder/md9lq04beqjo9/XJS

I have the parts Catalogues and manuals for the 1991 to 1996 Models, although this is on CD Rom and I am unable to print from it or download the files to my hard drive. Which actually seems silly when this software was issues in 1996 it was at a time where not ever one had a mobile phone, let alone a computer in their workshop. If anyone has any suggestions on how I can convert these files to a practical viewing format then please let me know

 

I assume the files on the CD Rom are not just PDF's?

 

They are PDF, and you can open them in Adobe but you can't save them to any other drive or print them, I think its the PDF viewing software contained on the CD ROM- Icon driven launcher window for each of the folders.

I did upload it to file storage in case the original got damaged, so there is a way I can look at achieving my goal

The software is great, but I am an old man who likes to print his work instructions out so I can refer to them as and when I need it. Having to lug a laptop down there and keep it safe but on hand is a massive ordeal thus rendering this software useless to me unless adapted for better convenience.

 

I have just tried downloading each PDF from the online version of the CD ROM, I can download them as PDFs but not open them.

I did post the link to the online storage folder containing the file but removed it as I was unsure of how this affected copywrite. I hear this online version may not be usable.

I will take the CD ROM to one of my computer boffin friends, he will have a team member who will know about this or a way round it.

If anyone wants to have a look then PM me with your email address, I might be able to send it as a zip file

 

cornishcat,

As I'm sure you appreciate, the Parts Manuals are not a problem as the online Jaguar Parts website has all the Parts Diagrams available online.

As regards the Service Manuals for your 4 litre, I have those available and can email them to you as viewable pdf files if you want them.

Cheers

Paul
