I think making these gems available as PDFs makes it easier for people to share them around.
I also feel sorry for the people who paid full price for the original books (me being one) only to see them given away at half the price as a digital download. I think it devalues the material somewhat, firstly by charging less for it and secondly by widening the number of people who have the material. I saved hard to afford the books, now I wish I hadn't bothered and just waited for the cheap version.

Is the PDF basically just a manual scan, that looks like a photocopy of the book? Or is it a nice perfectly clean and straight digital copy? |

Hi EndersGame,
I have both a printed copy of the book and a pdf. I would have to say the pages were scanned, based on how the type looks. The scans are clean and straight. In general, the pdf looks better printed, than it does on screen. Hope that helps.

For sure this is a scan, it includes all the original illustrations. Keep in mind though that this scan was created by L and L the original publisher of the book. It is a professional scan. There are no ends of pages visible, no twisted pages from pressing down on the copy machine, no black margins, etc.
The only legit PDF copy is from LLepub.com: https://llepub.com/index.php?main_page=p......uhi6ued3 |

These are good scans but not great scans. I suspect they were made from the printed pages.,which were on a non-coated paper stock, rather than the original files. The type is somewhat bitten.

I agree with LobowolfXXX. I have compared "Trick-Kards" (p211) to a Brother Hamman twist effect that is more consistent in handling, and Trost's wins in the end. It uses regular cards and the cards turn face down one at a time to then change color on their faces and backs.
