I used to save my schematics on computer but after that computer died i switched to copying them on 2 notebooks that i put all my audio info into. This makes it a hardcopy with nothing but a pen needed. Also the act of drawing it out should make your understanding of the circuit better as well.
Copying schematics may seem hard to do with hand drawings but after doing a few you can get fairly good at it. Working with ruled or graph paper makes keeping things in good alignment. Of course the accuracy of your copy is dependent on your accuracy so one needs to triple and quadruple check the copy for errors. When you breakdown an amp into a schematic it actually is simpler than the real thing. If you are into building amps it makes keeping track of changes and the results of the changes much easier than going with a subjective impression. cheers.
