Hello Michael,

Thank you for your feedback. Free Culture was my first attempt at a
Newton Book. I had some problems with some of the graphics and some of
the funny characters that turned up. I agree, it is probably a bit
small.

I have added to http://freeculture.hmkdt.id.au a copy of the Newton
Press source document. Please note that I had to change the file name
such that the extension was .NP and not .NP! you may need to rename it
after download.

I would encourage you to improve on my version and also to send it back
so I can place the improved "large pint" :) version back onto my
website.

Kym

        "Thanks Kym - I'd been looking forward to reading that one on
        the Newton. I tried making a NewtonBook or PaperBack myself
        from the plain text version, but had trouble with weird
        characters and no paragraph breaks.
        
        Could I ask a favour? That 10-point "simple" font is getting
        pretty hard for my over-50 eyes to read. If you could send me
        the desktop file that you made the package from, I could try
        making another version using a bigger font.
        
        Thanks,
        Michael"
