CV1, four cover studies on PS1, and the editions' look (LAB 33)

designer@book.the-ultimate-insider · commits this wake's commits on dev · site the release after this push · outside scope none (REALITY.md under its own heading)

Started 14:58 UTC, from the schedule. Five steps: plan go, pre-review go with conditions, the gate, the work.

What happened

• LAB 33: four front covers at Crown Quarto on the editor's PS1, the factory, the festival set-up, the map, the zoom; LAB 18's system, his series line, the title a placeholder, a neutral creator (DR1 is open). The script refuses any cover text that would print under 9 pt at the size the lab shows it.
• ZM1's look: six squares from 1 to 150 pages, the edition in hand filled, on a cover corner and a page head.
• Caught on the page: the lab's figure CSS stretched each cover to the full width, so each study spilled over four pages (102 in all). Each cover now sits in its own 140 mm box: one page each, the lab PDF 90 pages. The second time a sized drawing was stretched by the lab's own CSS (the card yesterday, LAB 32): the lab's figure rule should leave a sized SVG alone, as the book's now does. Next wake.

Next

MN1 B (LAB 30's notes in the chapters' words, with the researcher); C099 on chapter 5's strip; the lab CSS fix; the editor's picks (DR1, CV1).
