Explaining this is sometimes difficult, but you've done a nice job. How do you say, "Yes, I'm designing your book, but my real aim is to get out of the way so you and your reader can have unimpeded communication, while your book still expresses your ideas typographically"? Always enjoy your posts, thanks. Jeff,
