Elasund_Expn_English_Ltr.jpg

Elasund Expansion in English - rearranged for printing on Letter sized paper at 300 dpi, if you can print with 1/4" margins. I had to rearrange it to fit on US paper. (For some reason when I tried to print to PDF, it kept messing up the colors, so I left it as .jpg at 300 dpi.)
