Instructions for
printing your free copy of
Things in a Glass Box
1) Load nine blank sheets of A4 paper into your printer tray
2) Click on this link to open the first file: – Things in a Glass Box part 1. This will open the file in Adobe Reader (this may take a few minutes to load, depending on your connection speed).
Click on the ‘print’ icon on the toolbar (or select ‘print’ from the File menu) and then click ‘ok’.
3) When these pages have printed, pick them up as a batch and put them back in your printer tray.Make sure you don’t change the order or rotate them in any way. So, for instance, if the top of the text (‘Things in a ‘) was on the right hand side, make sure it is still on the right hand side.
And make sure the blank side is facing the right way for your printer. (For example, with a HP Laserjet 6L, the blank side faces towards you.)
4) Click on this link to open the second file: – Things in a Glass Box part 2. As before, this will open in Adobe Reader. Click on the ‘print’ icon on the toolbar (or select ‘print’ from the File menu) and click ‘ok’.
5) You now have both sides printed. Fold the pages in half, so that it forms a small booklet (known as a 'chapbook'.)If you don’t have a large enough stapler to staple along the inside of the middle fold, you can use a needle and thread to sew the sheets together.
Or you can fold one side of the book over a few times to use a normal stapler to reach the middle line, if you don’t mind the back half of your book being a bit creased afterwards.
You now have a facsimile of the original book!
