I've used that press for a book once.

But, I will agree, I don't think I know anybody else who ever has.

Hi borski.

Really? You did? How was it? And could you get a feel while doing it for how popular the option was?

Hi sbisker. :)

Yes, I did. For an out-of-print math manuscript from Cornell. It was quick, easy, and it's sitting on my bookshelf as we speak.

To be honest, it didn't seem that popular, but I heard about it from a friend (hence how I found it, though he'd never used it), so it wasn't unknown either.

P.S. I miss you, boy.
