All right, finally downloaded it, read it, and approved!
Some remarks and questions, still.

Some remarks and questions, still.
Remarks first:
Page 3, left column, optional rule: use of 'armour' instead of 'armor', as in the rest of the PDF -> voluntary, to differentiate the armor (worn) from the armor (AC)?
Page 4, left column, "When you are grappling with an opponent., your actions are limited." -> dot after opponent
Page 4, right column, "As per standard the d20 core rules," -> shouldn't it be "As per the standard d20 core rules,"
Page 5, Old feats -> Tumble isn't a feat, so you shouldn't mention it along the feats

After, some questions:
I have only one attack per round, and I just succeeded on a hold attack. Per the core rules, I would automatically inflict (1d3+Strength bonus) damage to my opponent at this point, and wait for the next round to inflict more damage. Now, per your rules, my fighter can only hold, and appears useless. And if he was a monk, even with flurry of blows, he wouldn't be able to hold then attack, since hold isn't a strike. Does it mean that hold is useless at low levels (until you gain iterative attacks)? Perhaps he could still automatically inflict damage, but in this case nonlethal damage - as opposed to Press Hold.
I have multiple holds (two, to be exact) established on an opponent, and I have the Press Hold feat. Can I simultaneously, in one round, inflict damage and prevent my opponent from establishing a hold on me (both through the Press Hold feat)?
Also, what is your point of view with the use of your rules with the flurry of blows ability?

And finally, the presentation and layout (to make it even better):
The text in the paragraphs isn't solid, you should justify it (it makes the text seems more 'solid') -> but only for the paragraphs, not any title
Also, the feats appear too much spaced, because of the interval between each title and text in them. You could simple halve these intervals -> but only in feats
I tried printing the pdf, but decided against it because of the layout, since some information was on two pages, and I prefer having all on the same page.
Suggested layout:
page 2: Introdution to Grappling ; Grappling Scores
page 3: Unarmed Attacks ; Strike ; Throw
page 4: Hold
page 5: Hold (continuation) ; Multiple Attacks ; Old Feats
page 6: Old Feats (continuation)
page 7: New Feats
