Page Formatting/Kickstarter Status
I've been pretty quiet, all things considered, so I appreciate y'all sticking around while I try to juggle 18 different things that are all behind the scenes and cannot come out onto the stage yet.This week I found out a couple things about page formatting and CMYK conversions: I've been doing them wrong. Which means that all the work Yoko has done is... for lack of a better word, moot...
