However when the book is published, I shall test my copy on my Macbook Pro for you. It is possible to sell through Amazon too, but Kindles are not really suitable for a book of images like this. To publish it as an iBook requires more jumping through hoops and complication too. The eBook version that I plan preserves the print layout as would a PDF. However, I had to make a decision earlier, in consultation with Jim, to not make the book available as a PDF. We felt that may not meet everyone's approval in that unauthorised copies of images might be more readily made and I don't own the images of course. Depending on final participation there may be less pages than previously in the print versions , in which case those will be cheaper. The only markup will be the donation to Jim's charit, as before and I think that the postage options are now cheaper than in some previous years.
