I've published two editions of my linear algebra text through
Lulu.com. The quality has been very good for the price. The
coilbound versions are especially nice, since they lie flat, while a

I published my Axiom book on Lulu.
Absolutely minimum hassle.
I uploaded a PDF and some cover artwork, ordered a copy and it
arrived.
I purchased the ISBN number which makes it somewhat harder to change

Yes, I am interested. Does it mean that amazon can also
Printing the color-highlighted docs in B&W doesn't work very well.
Its legible, but the lighter colors come out faint and hard to read.
You can replace the PDF fairly easily.
If you buy 25 or more copies, the price per copy falls a lot.
Apart from the color-highlighting issue, I have been impre

Dear all,
The implementation of QQ[] using FLINT is making lots of progress and
