Hi Jason, thanks for the note. I'm not a typographer either, and I'm not even sure I remember which typeface it is (Gotham perhaps? that's either the serif or sans serif typeface we're using; not sure which one). But I'll pass this on to the person who lays out the interiors of our books; obviously more than a few of you share this same concern. Thanks; keep'em coming!

Chiming in and dropping my 2 cents on this topic.
The body typeface is a bit peculiar. While I'll say it's not hard to read, it is a bit distracting.
Love the header typeface, cover designs, and chapter openings!
Lou, what typeface is the body set in?
Specifically, the upper serif on the "p, m, r, n" for instance, is quite thick. While the crossbar on the "e, a" is too thin. It's awkward, at worst. The contrast between the two, in the word "mental" let's say, is very obvious. The "e" and "a" are too thin compared to the thick stems of the "m, n, t, l." Do you see it?
I've also noticed that the footnotes use the same typeface, but a smaller size. These little differences aren't as noticeable or distracting at the footnote size. In fact it looks attractive.
Perhaps a slightly larger body text would be nice. I'll 2nd (or 3rd) that emotion.
I'm not a typographer, so I claim no expertise. But merely a type aficionado with an opinion.
Keep up the great work! Thanks! =)

Same for Poland. I was thinking about buying Lightroom and Audition but there's no way I'm going to pay that much penalty just for not living in the US. And that's even for a web download delivery method - oh come on, what's wrong with these people! If they don't want the same money as for US folks from me, they won't get any. Simple as that.

Hi all, well I solved it by thinking sideways - I now use Adobe Elements 6 for mac & Coda. Saved me a fortune & I don't miss anything that Dreamweaver 8. & Adobe Photoshop 6 had (ok, I did miss Mask Layers - but thanks to a Free mod for PSE 6 I now have those back too. Seems like it's badge snobbery almost - its cool to have Photoshop CS whatever & Dreamweaver
too - but you don't need the most expensive tools to do the job. For instance : how come the cheapest car isn't the best selling one? - easy! Coz it's not the coolest or the one people want to be seen in. Keep thinking Sideways!
