Continuous paper manuals and instructions in your home or office if you need to reference later? "Dude ... that is so lame and yesterday." Clean your home and office to remove the clutter and cool and hip by using the product manuals in your "paperless office".
You'll find most of the manuals, if not all products related literature on the production of web pages as an electronic document in PDF format. The management of the entire productmanuals electronically is another great way to reduce paper clutter, and will help you quickly and easily find product instructions at the time you need them.
I have successfully found and downloaded product support literature from even really old products that I bought well before the Web was even around.
Here is a "de-cluttering home and office cleaning project". It will not only help get rid of unnecessary paper clutter, but the next time you need a particular product manual, you will be able to find it fast and hassle-free.
1. Go around the house and office and collect every product manual you find.
2. Throw out the manuals for products you no longer have.
3. Go to the company's website and search for the manuals you need. Most sites have an easy way to find their products and related support information.
4. Download the manuals into a well-organized location on your computer, so it will be easy to find later when you need them.
5. If you cannot locate a product manual on the Internet, then you should scan it with a document scanner.
6. After you store each manual into your "paperless office", you can comfortably recycle and discard it.
There are many reasons and benefits to going paperless throughout your home and office. And focusing on all your product manual instructions is another way to clear out paper clutter while helping you get more organized and efficient throughout your home and office.
