Vix's Commentary

Note on All Llewellyn 2014 Books - For some reason, ABBYY FineReader hates lowercase letters T and R. Words like gently, little, and softly are rendered as gendy, litde, and sofdy. I have tried to snag every last of these errors, but some may have slipped through. I did the best I could do within time constraints.

Herbal Almanac (specifically) - The moon charts at the back have faded-looking cells in the tables. This is due to those cells having to be set as pictures in order to be readable due to the gray background. The problem is resolved with the OCR underlay.  If you yoink the OCR layer for putting on an eReader, for the love of everything sacred...PLEASE check the measurements in the recipes before cooking. I was pretty meticulous in correcting them, but I may have missed something or typo'd it.
