Robin:
I am only a professional insofar as that I stop when I am stumped
and pay a la carte for my graphic arts man at Kinko's to go and do
what I need doing. That's how you cut down on costs and keep
quality the way you want it, I believe. It took me light years
(Aldos PageMaker now Adobe) to do _Live At The EAR_. I prefer
Mac because that's where we started; Gates and Ballmer have been
trying to steal in ever since.
Heck, you could just *stamp* the numbers at the bottom of the
page; certain piquant authenticity with that move.
I'm trying to fix the air conditioner in my Dodge and just
learned that we have an electrical switching problem. Look at a
lamp. If it isn't the bulb and it isn't the wall switch - well,
you track it down. Gurdjieff warned us against this
electricity; the man had a point.
I could say more but too many chefs spaz the pot.
Will backchannel apropos ISBN biz.
Soon,

Richard:
ELEMENOPE Productions can do this:

>> ISBN [where DO you get these?], etc.)
However, if this is a magazine you don't employ ISBN, but instead
the
ISSN. Unless I'm wrong.
No, your're dead absolutely right. dave's Chide needs an ISSN
number; if I
were doing the _Translations_ seriously, I'd need an ISBN number.

an ISBN,

Gimme.

>without re-screwing-up the pagination.
If you are using _Quark_, the *industry standard*, you get
-pagination-, as much as you want in any order you want. (Not
that
my diacriticality is * I.S. *. ).
It takes some familiarity.

Shit, Richard, I'm doing this quick-and-nasty. If I were doing
it proper,
sure, I'd buy Mac and a proper dtp package. _Quark_, quck,

I don't want to jump in there and claim I know as much as you.
I
don't. I know what I know and that's about it.

Bullshit. You're a professional and I'm an amateur.

Obviously, you'll make it.
