Notes on paper copy and CD's

General note

The journal is freely accessible and there are no restrictions whatsover on making printed copy of the journal articles or of complete volumes for private use. However, in partnership with International Press, we supply complete printed volumes in soft-bound format. The price for this printed version is being maintained at around 10c (US dollars) per page plus handling. At this price it does not make economic sense to print your own copy of a complete volume and we recommend ordering this professionally printed version from us or IP (details). In particular libraries are recommended to purchase this version, which is suitable for display and eventually binding in hard covers. Details of library subscriptions.

The Geometry & Topology Monograph series is also available in low-priced hard-bound edition printed by IP. Details for ordering Volume 1 (The Epstein Birthday Schrift).

Reprints

Making your own

Each article will print directly on any postscript printer (or, via a postscript interpreter such as ghostscript, on any printer). The files are prepared, wherever possible, using high resolution fonts (600 dpi) and you will get the best results if you print on a 600dpi printer, but there is no problem printing on a lower resolution printer (typically 300dpi).

The page size has been chosen to make a "reprint" of roughly the same size as a reprint from a typical (larger) paper journal. The following instructions will produce a professional-looking reprint :
Print the article on a double sided laser printer. Align the pages with the title page on top and use a paper guillotine to trim the margins to roughly 1 inch all round with an extra 1/4 inch allowed on the left hand margin. Staple along the left hand side.

Covers

You can print your own cover by using the printing file for the cover provided. Print on blue paper if possible. If printing on a double sided printer the second page will print as the back of the front cover and you should use a blank sheet for the back cover. If printing on a single sided printer, then bind so that the second page forms the inside of the back cover. The front cover has a trimming line for guillotining. If this line fails to print (it is close to the print limit for most printers), then use the instructions above for trimming.

Ordering reprints from us

We provide a reprint service. We supply reprints, printed on chlorine-free paper with card covers on demand. The price is calculated as follows (numbers are UK pence ie 1/100 UK pounds). Each (double-sided) sheet costs 10p -- ie divide the page-length by 2, round up and multiply by 10. Then multiply by the number of copies needed. Add 20p per reprint for covers. Finally add 200p per order for postage and packaging.
