<p>This is the same collection as mentioned above as located at obo.genaud.net. That site has become obsolete due to our inability to update the site and has been replaced by buddhadust.net. This site also has the full set of PTS translations in html format. The new site has been completely converted to Unicode which makes use of the source files much easier.</p>

<p>If these files are wanted strictly for personal reading, the PDFs will just make it: they are not of the best quality scans.

If what is wanted is a clear rendering for further distribution it would probably be better to take the source files of the html version and convert them directly with a tool like Calibre.</p>

<p>The site also contains all the Bhk. Bodhi translations made available to the public gratis; the translations of Bhk. Thanissaro; the Sister Upalavanna translations, the translations of the Majjhima of Lord Chalmers, the manuscript of Bhk. Nanamoli's translation of the Majjhima, and the individual sutta translations of a variety of lesser-known translators and the Pali text. All in html format. Translations are linked to each other and to the Pali. See the Sutta Index Page:

I found [this PDF](http://www.bps.lk/olib/mi/mi019-p.html) which is his translation but without the commentary. It is "Extracted from *The Fruits of Recluseship: The Samaññaphala Sutta and its Commentaries*" -- which (as far as I can tell from Google) is a paperback available from Amazon or maybe [from here](http://www.bps.lk/cover.php?id=bp212s) (but I don't see evidence that it's published as an eBook).

I hesitate to suggest this because some people don't agree with everything he writes, but if I want a commentary then the first place I think of looking is http://dharmafarer.org/wordpress/sutta-titles-2 ... there, many suttas are translated with an introduction and footnotes and cross-references, each in its own PDF, for example [here is the one for the Samannaphala Sutta](http://dharmafarer.org/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/8.10-Samannaphala-S-d2-piya.pdf).

Multi languages

Pali
