I have access to all of the ePub editions of the FT, but need some assistance in figuring out how to get them into PDF formats without the distinct salmon-colored pages, like we used to have uploaded in the past. If someone who has posted previously can help me with that and with the process of uploaded, I will be happy to start uploading whatever editions - or all - that anyone had an interest in. Reply here or PM me.

Just a clarification of my last post. By ePub, I mean the FT ePaper online editions, as described here:

ePaper

Our ePaper is a digital replica of the daily print edition. It can be read on any device and is available to Premium and Print subscribers.

Did NOT mean the traditional ePub book format.

Thanks.

Yes indeed - thanks very much. Pity it's Europe and not UK edition but contains most of the content. Might be worth liaising with csmaven.

Any chance please if we could have the UK edition again as so much more UK focused content? Thanks

Anyone else having trouble with "douploads" and its Chinese mirror site?
Yes, I've read the download-tip pages, but I keep getting the "download session expired" notice - anyone else? any tips?
Uploaders are not responding or are perhaps not interested in changing upload-sites, or some other reason. I appreciate their efforts very much but I can no longer make use of these services.

thanks.

Both work well for me and are reasonably fast.

DoUploads: No popups, warnings from norton or catchas, just a short wait and annoying audio that can be muted.
Chinese site, No popups, warnings from norton, something a simple catcha. Just click the third box to the right (maybe twice), it does open another tab entitled Titanic.

On another topic why do other UK broadsheets & sundays appear here for short periods, then no more?

The douploads site gives lots of people problems. When it works, it's great but that only happens intermittently for me. The Chinese site works well. I click on the 3rd download option and it works right away.
The 3rd option has these characters:
普通低速下载点

Exactly!You will find out that the Chinese mirror site is the best in the forum once you manage to click the right link,and it helps uploaders make more money than any others do.

Stolen? Interesting choice of words, I am sure they will encourage posters of magazines tremendously.

Yes, stolen. There are many subscribers to daily press and magazines who post their links exclusively for avax, and for example not here. Those subscribers are discouraged from uploading regularly because of those who steal from them to anywhere else.
