Thanks. Can you do the same with the case books?

For all the sports in the forum?

Padgett might ask for croquet as well -- just ignore him.

Unfortunately, last years posted casebook was a scan of the book, and not a full fledged PDF file so it can't be compared.

Wow! I didn't know that Adobe had that feature. I'm checking out the casebook as we speak. I'll let you all know

I'm shocked but every major change is noted

The only change I noted in the comparison is that "Horn", "The final horn sounds", etc is changed to "signal", "Expiration of time", etc to align with the addition of the rules change concerning the use of an LED light for the expiration of time.

"1-14; 5-6-2 When a red light behind the backboard or an LED light on the
backboard is present, it is permitted to signal the expiration of
time in the quarter/extra period. If no red/LED light is present, the
audible timer’s signal will continue to signal the expiration of time."

Learned something new today. I didn't realize that Adobe had the feature to compare documents. Too bad it doesn't do it well for "secured documents". Had to work around that feature
