02/02/08. Em-dash corrections in all texts have now been
completed. (As a reminder, the problem was that "—-" had been
used in place of "—". Admittedly, this was not nearly as obvious
or annoying in the PDF files as it may be in this browser page,
depending on the browser you're using, but it was
annoying to me, and I'm glad
it's finally corrected.) These final changes affect all texts by
Jerome K. Jerome (except Three Men
in a Boat, Three Men on the
Bummel, and Paul Kelver,
which were okay to begin with), Anne
of Green Gables, all texts by George Bernard Shaw (except Mrs. Warren's Profession, Major Barbara, and Heartbreak House), and all texts by
Jules Verne.
01/30/08. More em-dash fixes, and a few other miscellaneous
fixes, in all books by Conan Doyle (except A Study in Scarlet, which was
okay), Ben Franklin, John Galsworthy, and Bret Harte, as well as
the books in the "Collections" category.
01/29/08. More em-dash fixes, along with fixes of some other
obvious formatting errors, in all books by James Barrie, L. Frank Baum,
John Bunyan, Frances Hodgson Burnett, and Thomas Carlyle.
01/27/08. More em-dash fixes, in all of the Tom Swift series, and
all of the books by Jane Austen, Edgar Rice Burroughs, and H. G.
Wells. (Exceptions are Tom
Swift and His Airship, Tom
Swift in the Caves of Ice, Sense
and Sensibility, and Pride
and Prejudice, all of which have either already been fixed, or
else did not contain the problem in the first place.) Also, fixed
the link to The Chessmen of Mars.
01/25/08. A GIF figure in Einstein's Relativity has been changed to JPEG
for better LaTeX portability. (Specifically, so that it worked
with TeX Live 2007.) There's no visual change in the PDF.
04/02/03. The
Imitation of Christ. Completed
proofing. (To be honest, I proofed the first 250 pages in detail,
and then just checked the remainder for formatting. But I think
it's okay, because the text was very high quality.)
01/05/03. Alice's
Adventures in Wonderland. Added a missing poem prior to
the frontispiece. Corrected LaTeX em-dash constructs.
Corrected size of the illustration of the Lobster. Improved
the formatting of `Father William'. Added a missing quotation
mark.
01/05/03. Tom
Swift in the Caves of Ice.
Corrected LaTeX em-dash constructs. Added caption to
frontispiece. Changed frontispiece to jpeg, cutting PDF
size by about 700K.
01/05/03. Tom
Swift and His Airship.
Corrected LaTeX em-dash constructs. Added caption to
frontispiece. Changed frontispiece to jpeg, cutting PDF
size by about 700K.
01/05/03. Three
Men in a Boat. Corrected LaTeX em-dash
constructs. Removed fragments of border from frontispiece.
Changed frontispiece to jpeg, cutting PDF size by about
200K.
