Colophon

Edie Freedman designed the cover of this book. The graphic is adapted from an engraving explaining "Mechanics" that Edie found in a London print shop: "Published as the Act directs, 1829, by Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme, & Brown, Paternoster Row, London." The cover layout was produced using Quark XPress 3.3 and Adobe Photoshop 2.5 software, in Adobe ITC Garamond font.

Jennifer Niederst designed the interior layout. Text was prepared in SGML using the DocBook 2.1 DTD. The print version of this book was created by translating the SGML source into a set of gtroff macros using a filter developed at ORA by Norman Walsh. Steve Talbott designed and wrote the underlying macro set on the basis of the GNU gtroff -gs macros; Lenny Muellner adapted them to SGML and implemented the book design. The GNU groff text formatter version 1.09 was used to generate PostScript output. The fonts used are Adobe ITC Garamond and a slightly darkened version of Adobe Courier.

The illustrations that appear in the book were created in Aldus Freehand 4.0 by Chris Reilley.
