Changing Trans fluie

Haven't been on for awhile. Expidition has been fine. We have a 04 XLT with the heavy duty Tow package. The 2 Ford dealers closest to me have gone under and I don't feel like fighting traffic 25 miles accross town to the next nearest dealer. I am towing a Travel Trailer back from Idaho next week. Before I leave to go there I want to change the fluid in the trans. Truck has 52K on it and was changed at 30K. The trans pan has 14 bolts and a access cover on the bell housing. Can Torque Converter fluid be drained on this Veh.? Does it have a filter?. None of the auto supply stores around here have 04 manual for sale, to new a vehicle. Where can I go to down load instruction on how to do this. I have changed trans fluid on other vehicles I have owned just like to have the intructions to do it properly. two more questions How much fluid does it hold with the converter? How do you get magic marker off/out of leather door panel.

Thanks
