In summary I can only see advantages in A4 if Quanta is serious about
electronic publishing. If it is serious, then there is no choice. We
have to go A4. However Quanta must still do its homework.
A5 please.
Can't really see why something as archaic as paper size affects
electronic publishing.
I suspect it is because the A5 document 'prints' to pdf in A4 page sides
- ie 1+36, 2+35 and so on.
It should be easy though not to print in that format for pdf.
Anyway, can't read an electronic version in the loo, well, not easily
anyway!
He he. I remember dropping my newly bought Tandy 200 in the bath
(remember those? I still have it and replace batteries every year to
preserve memory). It worked fine after disassembly and drying in the
airing cupboard.
Incidentally the Tandy was bought to do a job for a past QL owner. He
had clients who wanted to send sales data to base. The Tandy is a Z88
sized laptop, with a built in 300 baud acoustic modem. A brilliant
package in its day, and a -much- better keyboard than the Z88 (and even
the QL).
