The first copy shall be a PDF copy of the folder's Paper contents including separate PDF copies of the standalone Graphics (Drawings).

The Second copy shall be a duplicate of the first, but the file formats must remain in their original source formats such as file1.docx, file2.xlsx, file3.dwg including any associated original graphics files.

PDF files must be provided as native PDF, exported directly from the source software and not scanned images.

Information that specifically identifies each item, such as a serial number, firmware revision number or the like shall also be included in the manuals.

An example of the Table of Contents is included in Appendix A of this Technical Specification.

Where generic documents (such as the user manual for a specific ITS device) are relevant to more than one Site installation, only one copy need be provided in each copy of the operations manuals.
