Re: eBooks and eArticles

Nick, designing a book shouldn't be that difficult as long as the designer keeps in mind that he is designing the book for readers, not himself, nor his colleagues. One can't go wrong by emulating older books, say from the 1960s. At that time the designers were proud people who didn't resort to gimmicks like ragged-right some modern "designers" do. It was also a time when hyphenation wasn't a crime in English text. And time when dots were not omitted from abbreviations and initials!
