All the more reason to go all pdf online. That way page count is not a problem. Also, when Richard creates the final document he may actually get fewer pages. What I submitted was 13 pages in MS Word, single cloumn.


I do an Epsilon Aurigae Campaign Newsletter and typically it ends up 50 to 60 pages approximately quarterly. Since they are online in pdf, the number of pages is not a big fact. Someone can print the whole Newsletter or part or just keep the pdf file. I have done 22 of these for the current campaign andf #23 will be out in July.

While Richard can do as he sees fit, I have two more parts that may be close to the same size. There is a great deal to cover in spectroscopy and it is no easy task to keep the page count down.

Hi Jeff, et al,
Your articles are great and all, I've enjoyed them a lot, but 13 pages used to be the size of the entire newsletter. Maybe Richard can break it into 2 or 3 installments if you don't want to? Just a thought.

Fellow Star Hounds,

The June Newsletter will be issued a few days later than normal due to the fact that the DOTM falls late in the month and I want to give time for AJ to compile the reports for the CfO column.

Also, I could use some more material. If you have something, please send it soon. And for those of you who promised material a few months back, maybe it’s about time you came through? (Just a hint.)
