So killing two birds with one stone they then crop out those things that only the printer needs and then place the PDF up as a book for sale in digital format as this cropped master print copy in PDF form.With this as my understanding, it makes sense to me for them to not have to make a second PDF, or actual book, for digital versions of it which saves money, and SHOULD save costs and lower consumer prices.So while they could, I doubt it will happen that they will, make a PDF only version of the book format for the medium in which it is intended to use, but use the same files for both printing and digital versions as a money saver.All the more reason if they are cutting so many corners to save money, they could spare a little waste to update the digital books for the price being charged for them.PDF copies could have SO many advantages over the physical books that it is ridiculous and could attract so many customers. Your printable page power cards for example. They would have never had to make real power cards and people could have bought the digital book and printed them, or photocopied the pages from their books, and this would have saved money on developing the cards that are supposed to come out in 2009 for Martial Powers, etc. Conserving not only the resources to develop the same thing multiple times, but making something that would give incentive for people to buy the digital books.I know people will still want professional printed cards on cardstock...get it done at Kinko's or something. Cost will likely be the same as the cards for Martial Powers powers set.But we are just the little people that don't know a thing about business. I am just cheap and this most cost effectively when doing things and businesses always want to save money by spending more on things....Maybe they will sue that idea for future books.Appendix J: PowersPermission granted to print this page for personal use only.Viola!, physical and digital book buyers get benefit, and errata should fit on the powers preformatted card spaces anyway.It just seems sloppy not to update one product that is a major driving force to bridge the gap to digital media and only update the ones that get future revisions into physical print.I guess we are just alone in this thinking process.</blockquote>
