I've downloaded the first issue and gotten 20 pages into it, and it's hard to put it down (though I really do need to be working at the moment!). My only regret is that it's just a PDF -- I can't (...) (19 years ago, 22-Jun-05, to lugnet.publish.brickjournal, FTX)

| | | | | | | | (...) Calum is indeed correct. We built the magazine using professional printing software (Adobe InDesign) at a full 300dpi for 8.5 x 11. Needless to say, that download is over 100 Mb. As for all the other comments here, thank you so much. We are (...) (19 years ago, 22-Jun-05, to lugnet.publish.brickjournal, FTX)

| | | | | | | | (...) Awesome stuff! One suggestion, coming from someone who works in a copy center. I think this would be better if it were formatted for 8-1/2x11 paper instead of 11x17 paper. This would make printing out a copy a lot easier. Russell BayLUG/BayLTC (19 years ago, 22-Jun-05, to lugnet.publish.brickjournal, FTX)
