We remember the first version of Keynote had a nice manual. Also, the second one, which came as part of iWork 05, had a substantial paper manual in the box. Then the box became smaller in iWork 06, and it is probably even smaller in iWork 08, the newest version.
iWork 08 still includes some sort of a manual, but it’s not exhaustive documentation for all Keynote options and features. However, if you have your iWork CD/DVD around, you’ll find it contains a PDF manual. And the same manual is also available online on Apple’s site.
To download a copy of the Keynote manual, go to:
While you are on that page, you’ll find a prominent link to the Keynote user manual, as you can see in Figure 1, below.

As you can see in Figure 1, above, this link provides a download for the manual of the latest version of Keynote. So what if you have an older version of Keynote and want a manual for that version? In that case, use this link.
As you can see in Figure 2, below, this page provides manuals for all Keynote versions except Keynote 1.
