Common questions
Softcover or hardcover for a paper anniversary?
Both are paper, so either keeps the tradition. The hardcover lasts longer on a shelf; the softcover is lighter to post. The digital edition is there too if you want it on the day.
How long will the printed copy take?
It depends on where it is going. The window for each country, counted from when you approve the book, is listed lower on this page.
What if I cannot think of three answers?
Each question shows an example, and the page nudges you when an answer is very short. Think of one place, one phrase and one day from the year.
