Saw some great suggestions -- i also added a "wind scale" table riffing on the Beaufort scale, with advice on what to fly in what conditions (types of kites, balloons) and how to estimate the wind speed from things like flags, treetops. But it could use a lot more work!

Thanks for input @cfastie and @xose!!

We're going to try to prepare this at it's current state for the first printing with the AS220 Printshop. I downloaded this as a PDF and Word doc, and am trying to figure out the best way to reformat for booklet:

A_Pocket_Guide_to_Grassroots_Mapping.docx

A_Pocket_Guide_to_Grassroots_Mapping.pdf

Here it is reflowed roughly for booklet shape: Reformatting_attempt_of_A_Pocket_Guide_to_Grassroots_Mapping__Oct_2_2017.docx

And the google doc where i removed columns: https://docs.google.com/document/d/13e8BvKrCgydUCc_QbjiqkEFGI6rVSS5eHrzMdYczkKg/edit

And a PDF: Reformatting_attempt_of_A_Pocket_Guide_to_Grassroots_Mapping__Oct_2_2017.pdf

Bookletized!

I can help with translation into Danish

Best regards

OK, i set it up so you can print it 2-sided on letter paper, then cut the whole stack in half, place the top stack over the bottom stack, then fold and staple to make the booklet:

Intermediate step: booklet-publiclab-pre.pdf

Final: booklet-publiclab-final.pdf

OK, one more version with page numbers!

booklet-publiclab-1-pagenumbers.pdf

Tweaking the scale a bit (i know that's unfortunate, but I'm having some clipping issues) so I bookletize the above at 65%, then double up spreads (so four pages per side) at 220%.

Here it is with the final page reordering: booklet-publiclab-1-pagenumbers-reordered.pdf

And here, 4-up and ready for printing:

booklet-publiclab-1-pagenumbers-reordered-4up.pdf

Looking good! The cutout front (which we may not go ahead with) doesn't line up exactly for me, but it's pretty close and we may be able to make it work... remains to be seen in the final prints:

Now with outlined text:

booklet-outlines-black.pdf

This is going to press! Final paper choices:

Interior: Rolland Hitech 140M / 70lb, letter size, True White, Smooth, 17.50M - 104 g/m2 Cover: Elements by Paperworks, at 80lb cover, kraft

Whoops! Missed a couple blue links -- here it is outlines, with all text black:

@xose -- it's actually Kite Month in the US -- http://nationalkitemonth.org -- so if you post your booklet (no rush, just excited!) we can do some outreach in both languages!

Also linking back to the announcement that these are now available!

Ooook amigas here it is. Just the text. I've just wrote the texts on the images in a paper and tomorrow I'll upload the edited images on the same document. I don't know if it's correct but i've signed "traducido por Imvec.tech". If not, simply erase ;) A question @warren: second page must be translated or are just the guidelines for the past collective writing?

Guía de bolsillo para el mapeo colectivo con globos y cometas

I've just translated one page of the Flight log. I'm not a google docs savy user. I can't erase the lines, just the content ;D

OMGGGGGGG this is so exciting.

The second page I left in so people know even the paper version is open to change!

What an amazing job! The credit looks great too. What can we do to help?

Here's the PDF in spanish

I'm bookletizing it with this: CreateBooklet1.1.dmg

Here's the 1-column version: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1OY09gMhgMYAUAsoNOIKbdAJh3-OcPW47ITZJu-3--5w/edit

And here's the 1 column PDF:

booklet-guia-es.pdf

And paginated into a booklet!!!

It worked!
