First and foremost, when composing email, the best place for your text is in the the _body_ of the email, not sent as an attachment (a non-RFC-compliant attachment at that). Please don't do that.
I have examined what seems to be the preliminary "Googleprint" catalog. It consists of books scanned and posted by other people including us. At least half of them that I looked at are available only as page scans, and I have to want a book an awful lot to put page scans together just for my own use. They use a LOT of our books; in fact, everything they have that they are aware we have shows us as the best or only site to go and get the book.
Second, when you wish to post to a mailing list about a particular subject, it is best to read the archives first, in full, so you can see if the subject or question you were about to ask has been discussed before, as this one has. Please go back and re-read the archives of the last few weeks to bring yourself up to speed on the issues, concerns, support, and other items related to "Google Print". David A.
