Just electronic image transfer for you to print off at home! http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/about/news/changes-affecting-visitors-to-our-site/

	Not everyone has a pc and or a printer so that wouldn't be an option for some They are assuming folks are doing genealogy so will have have a pc and are following on looking for manual records too I got my grandfathers and his brothers army records from there. They were in the second Boar War Also got a copy of the ships record of 1911 when'd he was washed overboard and lost at sea They are all large sized records that would have to be cut down on a home printer
