NOTE: Generally the pdf version of the digital book provides an opportunity to create an accessible version for specific needs.  The .pdf version produced within Pressbooks does not provide a fine highly formatted print version of the book; the print version that is created may not meet expectations of a hard copy book and may not be suitable for presentation or ceremonial purposes.  The creation of a high quality print version of the book should be considered as a separate operation, which should, perhaps be undertaken with an alternate product if the intention is to primarily to produce print versions of the book.
