I have download the pdf for the book you recommended on the rigging of the Santìsima Trinidad. My problem is I can not read the table on page 69 because the text are way too small. I am using Google translator but the text on the table is too small, and if I enlarge it, it becomes fuzzy.

Any ideas?

Using the link provided, I accessed the library website, found the desired page, and downloaded it.

This is rather pointless, as you can fortunately do all of this yourself, already without any additional help. Good luck.

"Link provided". I do not see a link. I am sorry for my ignorance but I guess after 5 years at building kits, it seems I still have much to learn.

Thank you for your patience and please point to the discussed link.

I see. Perhaps you have a friend who could be able to download these pages for you. It's only a few hours' effort. Alternatively, you can buy a hard-copy reprint, where the texts, including the tables, are already transcribed. No need to download and print anything.

I just spent 1 hour trying to figure out how to get the chart downloaded clear and I have failed. 

PLEASE HELP
