Nice post. Now tell me how to make the print large enough to read. The
note says that the size of the preview is as large as it gets.

I find the preview text pretty large - not the whole page image, but
the sample of text. One presumably has to pay to get more than
three-quarters width of a block of up to 8 lines.

Be advised (as one who sent data for this edition) - they took what a
family sent. This is presumably why, in a least one case, a woman
appears to have changed the order of her given names on marriage. (We
were correct - they were wrong!)
