	Tips on Using the Sherlockian Heraldry e-book CD by Randall Stock
		This folder contains the color illustrations of the Coats of Arms in bitmap (bmp) format. All of these illustrations are in the main Heraldry file noted above in (a). When printing the illustrations, some users might get better results from these files. See the Using Graphics section below for more details.
		Each Coat of Arms has both a color illustration and a written description. The illustration always appears first, and is followed by the description. Moving to the next page after the description will take you to another illustration, but it will not be the "next" alphabetical name since they are not in order.
		The Coats of Arms are not in alphabetical order, so it's rarely useful to just page through the Sherlockian Heraldry file. Instead, use the Index of bookmarks in the Navigation pane to jump directly to the desired page.
