Hi DJ, I just looked at the pdf to see how things would look if printed out.
At page 14 (# at upper right corner) of the pdf, the graphics are in the wrong order wrt the the html version. Hmm, one other remark, the pdf starts with page #1 (front matter), followed by page #i for the index and then page #1 again for the introduction chapter. So basically page numbers after the index are offset by 2 ;-( Kind regards, Bert Timmerman.
