As you may know, along with Josh Humphrey of easyWDW.com I co-author the best-reviewed Disney World guide book series ever published, The easy Guide to Your First Walt Disney World Visit.
The 2016 edition of The easy Guide has been available as a paperback and a Kindle book for a few weeks now, and I’m delighted to announce that for the first time The easy Guide is available in PDF format!
WHY WOULD YOU EVEN WANT A PDF?
For guide books, I’m a real fan of printed books. It’s easier to flip back and forth to make comparisons; you can easily scribble notes to yourself on page or on the inside covers; and the images are easy to read. So for most, a copy of our paperback is going to be the best choice.
The main issues with a paperback are portability and access, and that’s why we’ve always made The easy Guide available as a Kindle Book as well. If you have one of Amazon’s apps, you can read a Kindle book on almost any device with a screen. Kindle books are also by tradition the least expensive way to get a book.
However, if you like to keep some material handy—like the step-by-step park touring plans in Chapter 6 of The easy Guide–you can’t print anything from a Kindle book. Images don’t come across as well in Kindles, and you can’t resize images (like our park maps and charts of the best times to go) to be able to see more of their details in Kindles or Kindle Fires.
Enter the PDF, which, while not perfect, combines a lot of the best of the above while avoiding most of their negatives.
- PDFs are the most ubiquitously readable document format in computing, so you can read our or refer to our book from almost any device with a screen, usually without having to take the extra step of downloading an app or a reader.
- You can zoom the view on a PDF, so you can see our images at any level of detail you wish to.
- And probably most handy, you can print anything from a PDF you want—from the entire book to a page or anything in between.

Do you mostly want to see our book on your devices, but also want to print the Disney World restaurant reviews in Chapter 6 to scribble all over them, or print the park touring plans in Chapter 5 to stick in your back pocket, or print the To-Do Lists, or FastPass+ step by step guides, in Chapter 8 so you can cross each step off when you’ve completed it? A PDF lets you do all that.
