• Original Format PDF (NOT FOR PRINT): Copy of the book in its original format (before imposition) to help arranging pages in signatures
• Typesetting has been done with the care of a professional edition — with use of dropped caps and attention to font selection, word and letter spacing, kerning, leading and elimination of widows and orphans.
• Every illustration has been individually cleaned, restored, and optimized so that the artwork reproduces clearly on a home printer. None of the illustrations were generated by AI.
• Print at home on 8.5″ x 11″ paper. Produces a 4.25″ x 5.5″ textblock when pages are cut in half and folded. You will need a printer capable of double-sided printing.
