HI Jim,
 
    Even print books aren't perfect.  Publishers often leave out words, use
wrong words, I've even seen instances where the text refers to obviously the
wrong person.  Books just rarely are completely perfect, in any format.

Hi Jamie,

I've never had a perfect PQ book.

What I wonder is why a publisher quality book would have words all run
together? I thought PQ books were supposed to be in perfect condition?
