Lulu has just shipped my Icar Beta proof read! BLOODY HELL!

Rasterizing everything down got it through. Even though the document was bigger (400MB), it got through the print system. I'll write this up.

It's here!

I'm rather pleased. There's a whole bunch of stuff I want to change - such as opacities and some layout errors but the text is there and THAT is what I need read for me.

I love the first unboxing of a book. It's quite a sublime feeling. Especally for a big project like this.

That, and the smell of fresh print.

Oddly, it didn't have that fresh print smell that you get from modern books. I'll go home and give one of them a good sniff. After all, the Mrs thinks I'd rather sleep with the print copy than her!
