Attractively formatting Project Gutenberg texts
|
|
On this page, you can see samples of Project Gutenberg etexts that have been converted to HTML with GutenMark software, and then subsequently converted to Adobe PDF with various formatting options. These samples are provided primarily so that PG volunteers can view -- and comment on -- printing formats for the Foundation Project, Inc., which proposes to create a print-on-demand service for PG etexts.In case you're wondering, GutenMark has no affiliation with the Foundation Project. But obviously there is a pretty close match between our goals, and we're happy to be able to cooperate.
Anyhow, everyone is free to view or comment on these materials, whether or not you're a PG volunteer. Please direct comments to Craig Morehouse, President of the Foundation Project, Inc. The initial review period has been extended to March 1, 2002.
What kind of comments are wanted? Well, here's a quote from Craig: "Everything is open, and we want to know what looks best to each of you."
