When I read that others had the cover, I went back to my account and re-downloaded the pdf. Now I have a version with a cover.

On a different note, I also see that the text in the PDF is selectable (I have a full version of Acrobat), which means that cobbling together a "cheat sheet" for personal use will be pretty easy -- I can just copy key sections from the PDF and paste into Word. Very great.

Ah, so they do update the PDF Thanks for the tip.

I just bought it. Apparently they sorted out the shipping cost issues, and I didn't run into any problem at all (I did not pay through PayPal). The PDF looks great to me. I thought the release was supposed to occur in only a few days, so it is a nice surprise.

Yeah, I think so. I only have one perfect bound monogram, 'Gods of Law.' Looks fantastic due to the lay out work (gonna have to look at the book to give a proper citing).

Yes, you are right. Although the covers remain so-so, the old monographs are indeed easy to distinguish from the new ones (which are indicated as perfect bound, and have red on the cover). So I can confirm they're great quality, I won't fear buying them in the future (if only Chaosium would give a preview with a few pages for each monograph, that would be even nicer).

I bought the "for President 08" monograph (it's considered a monograph, right ?), and the printing is good quality (color cover, character and papaer quality actually better than the usual Chaosium products, good binding; the text layout inside is not so professional however, but it's not the fault of the printer). Is this representative of this new monograph process quality ?
