This is all true and being thunk (new word) about. I like the idea of
the PDF being particularly printer friendly (that is, designed to be
printed at home) and so letter makes that especially easy for a broad
category of people. It also gives me the opportunity to make the PDF a
very distinct product from the book which gives me a little thrill.

I'm especially delighted to hear about your shipping experience.
Please let us know how the product works out, because our drafts all
come from the American printer and I understand that European buyers
will be receiving from a different print shop and I can't verify the
quality beforehand.

Now I'm kind of nervous actually. :D
