You are receiving this message because you are enrolled in CS846 Advanced Topics in Electronic Publishing. I have trimmed the e-mail list to those who are enrolled as of 16 May 2021. The course Web site is up to date now, as of Thursday's recording session: . Note that the date of the course is "Spring/Summer 2021". The site will continue to be updated as the term progresses. The site has my slides, stuff that is public domain, stuff that I have permssion to post, and URLs pointing to materials at other sites. The URLs, particularly of published journal articles, conference articles, and books, should be exercised from within the University of Waterloo Library, where you can sign on with your watIam credentials. Then, you should not have to pay for a download. I will occasionally be sending you via sendit, zip files that expand into directories containing materials that I cannot put at the Web site, for public download, because they are copyrighted. These are for YOUR use and are not to be posted or shared. Thank you for honoring this request. The next 2 recording sessions are Tue 18 and Thu 20 May at 9:00 on Zoom: In fact, this invitation is active until the end of the term. We will finish up traditional typography and move on to phototypestting and then digital typography. I note that one of you has already started to pin down a topic for his project. Hasta Martes Dan ================================================================================ Date: Sun, 16 May 2021 14:53:27 -0400 (EDT) Subject: CS 846: ATEP Materials, not for Posting or Redistribution. Bcc: ATEP Hi All.. Sigh.. I cannot get sendit to work. Please go ASAP to and download the 4 zip files there, about Traditional Typography, Photo Typography, Digital Typography, and Formatting. ONCE you have downloaded, PLEASE let me know that you have done so. I will remove them from the site either when I have heard from ALL of you or Tuesday 18 May at 12:00 EDT, which ever comes first. These are the materials for the lectures already given and the lectures that are coming up that I cannot post at the Web site. Save them so that you will have them locally when I use them in my lectures. Some of the items in the unzipped directories ARE at the Web site because I own them or the owner gives permission, but I include them in the zips for completeness. Enjoy Dan ================================================================================ Date: Mon, 24 May 2021 11:13:50 -0400 (EDT) Subject: CS 846: Next ATEP Recording Sessions on Tu and Th 25 and 27 May Bcc: ATEP Hi All..

Time's a'flowing and a'wasting. You need to choose a project that you will do and report on to the class and in a paper submitted to me. From the course Website: Each student has to do the following: 1. Do one of * a project, implementing or specifying something related to EP or * research about something related to EP. 2. Write a conference-sized paper about the project or research. 3. Give a 30-minute talk based on the paper so that the whole class benefits from it, and the prof has one less lecture to do :-). Please get your project or report topic approved by the prof before going to far into it, to make sure that it will be acceptable. The due date for the project or report is Thursday 5 August. Your talk will be sometime in July during one of the class sessions. The next 2 recording sessions are Tue 1 and Thu 3 June at 9:00 on Zoom: In fact, this invitation is active until the end of the term. We will continue with formatting.

I still have not heard from some of you about your project. See below my signature. I thought that I was going to be attending a virtual conference in Europe during the normal time of our recording sessions. So I announced at the end of last Thursday's recording session that there would not be any recording sessions this week. It turns out that the conference is in OUR afternoon, not OUR morning. So it is unnecessary to skip our recording sessions this week. Let's skip Tuesday's session, so that you have more time to work on your project :-). But there WILL be a recording session on Thursday 10 June at 9:00am at the usual zoom link. Hasta Jueves Dan ------------------ Subject: CS 846: Your Project Time's a'flowing and a'wasting.

Dan ================================================================================ Date: Sun, 13 Jun 2021 14:24:06 -0400 (EDT) Subject: CS 846: ATEP Student Lectures Bcc: ATEP Hi All You are 13 students. With two students giving their talks in one recording session, we will need 7 recording sessions at the end of the term. The last session is on Wednesday 4 August, which is designated as a Thusday to make up for the lack of class on 1 July, Canada Day!!!!! The second last session is Thursday 29 July. Before that, they are all on Tuesdays and Thursdays. So the possible dates for your presentation are: 04 Aug (Wed) 29 Jul 27 Jul 22 Jul 20 Jul 15 Jul 13 Jul The trade off is that the earlier your talk + the more time you in which to use feedback from your talk in preparing your written report - the less time you have to prepare your talk + the fewer other talks I have against which to compare yours the later your talk - the less time you in which to use feedback from your talk in preparing your written report + the more time you have to prepare your talk - the more other talks I have against which to compare yours I need from EACH of you ranked BIDS for dates. I will allocate 2 per date in FIFO order, as perceived by my e-mail box! If I exhaust your list of BIDs, I will pick some LATER date, if I can, unless you tell me a different scheme, e.g., to pick an EARLIER date.
