[QUOTE="Kafen, post: 5437690, member: 11273"] The thing is... Somebody that buys a POD set of Council of Wyrms, for example, is not looking for 2011 standards in art and design. The only standards that would apply would be technical in terms of DPI and scan resolution. As long as the final PDF meets the standards of the POD requirements, it is a simple matter of assigning one of the technical clerks to go through and proof read PDFs one at a time and flag parts of the product for new images, font issues, and POD requirements. To bring up the Council of Wyrms setting for example, the art is horrid in DPI printing on the original cards. You are able to see the actual inklines of the printing process on one of the racial cards. As long as the scan is enough DPI to bring back the original style, it is very true to the era. I can see license terms for art being an issue if they do not have the rights to re-issue the covers. But, I have no idea what kind of terms they are using. Anyways, it would be a one time investment of time for each PDF in most cases. I do not see how WOTC could lose. [/QUOTE]
