go to upload your finished book to the publisher for a proof copy and discover that you've been using the 8x14 page size instead of the 8.5x11 that you thought you were on.

:sackfail:

Now I get to redo 105 pages of music and text layout.

And more Mojo. What a pain in the ass.
 
There has GOT to be a way to auto-reformat that shit.

I would look into that before making any changes.

Either way, mojo.

The big problem is the large amount of PDF's that I custom fit. I will need to redo all of those regardless.

I guess I'll look at it like one more editing pass before I send it out to make my proof reading copy.

:facepalm:
 
This is a moment that requires a true dose of mojo...

up to page 27. I really have to change a lot of stuff to make it fit on the 8.5x11. At least I have all of the original Guitar Pro and Illustrator files to work with.

Since I was planning on having a place for people to download the audio files anyway I'll probably have full PDF's of all the examples available too since I have to do this.

If my publisher offered the 8x14 I would have just run with it since thats how things seem to layout well even though its an awkward size.
 
ok. Just finished the first section at page 32. I'll start second (and twice as long) section tomorrow.

So fucking irritated with myself right now.
