Research direction

The file is NIST_IGOR_SANS_Model_Docs_v4.10.pdf in sasmodels/models/ref. Run a repository-wide search for its name to confirm nothing references it, then move it to doc/_static with git mv. Done when the PDF is gone from models/ref and sits in doc/_static, and the docs still build. Adding a link from the docs is optional and the issue leaves it open, so check with the maintainers first.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

The file NIST_IGOR_SANS_Model_Docs_v4.10.pdf (6.3 MB) currently lives in sasmodels/models/ref, but it is not referred to anywhere in the sasmodels source tree.

I suggest moving it to the doc tree instead.

Perhaps put it in doc/_static so that we can link to it from the sasmodels docs.
