PDF Download

PET is available in several PDF versions. Each is better or worse for different purposes, such as reading it on screen, on a device, or for printing.

Each version also has a standard and "colour" variants. The "standard" has source code highlighted in black and white, and shows links explicitly, like this: learn Python (http://www.python.org)

The "colour" variant has a more colorful source code highlighting, which makes it more suitable for on-screen reading, but not as nice to print. The links are clickable: learn Python

Other than that, the contents are identical.

A4 landscape, 2 columnas: [versión color]

Easy to print, nice for wide screens, 64 pages.

A5 portrait: [versión color]

Nice for narrow screens, 121 pages

A4 portrait: [versión color]

Nice for "square" screens, 74 pages

Booklet A4/A5: [versión color]

You can't read this on a screen.

This version is intended to print two-sided on A4 pages, folded down the middle and stapled, producing an A5 booklet.

Because of the way the PDF files are created, it's easy to create new versions. If you need another paper size, different margins, bigger type... email us at revistapyar@netmanagers.com.ar, it can be done!
