Sure. But a manual would not cost anything close to that.
In fact, it looks (after about 5 minutes of research) that for anywhere from between forty and sixty bucks one could print and bind the Nuendo pdf from an online service specializing in that sort of thing.
Recycled paper? It could be done, and for less than the online services, should Steinberg wish to make the manual available. Print-on-demand short runs don’t have to be expensive.
I still miss my paper manual… but whatever. Not enough, apparently, to invest in any of the options described here!
