with a reduction feature. It occurred to me that if all my most

referencedfactsweretogetheron onepagethey would be infinitely

more useful. Memory maps, conversion charts, machine code

tables, and everything else went into the copier over and over until

they were small enough to paste together on one sheet. But the

for every fraction. This exact science of typesetting was the perfect

answer to the question of how the next generation of compact

reference materialwouldbecreated.

After about eight months of practice I decided it was time. Four

monthslaterTheSpecialReferenceIssueofTheTransactor (Volume

4, Issue 5) was released. The brown coverearned itthe nickname,

ttTheBrown Bible"anditwasn'tlongbeforemanywerereferringtoit

as"themostphotocopiedmagazineofalltime". Everyoneseemedto

be happywithit, exceptme.

the Science, becameTypesetting: the Art. Itwasthen I decided the

nextgeneration was within my reach. Although the Preview simpli

fied the task by easily ten-fold, the amount of target material had

more than tripled. After eight months of organizing (in the time

between makingmagazines) andalmosttwomonthsofdoubleshifts

at the type shop, I now find myself writing this paragraph. The

Complete Commodore InnerSpaceAnthologyisfinallyfinished.

AfterI departedfrom Commodore to run The Transactor indepen

printer. Atfirst I was totally consumed by the superb quality of the

type, butthatdidn'tlastlong. Ibegan experimentingwith pointsizes

(character size), leading (line spacing), and the over 300 other

commands that are available including an entire text programming

language. With vertical spacing down to V576th of an inch and
