Is the POD the same size as the originals?

Is there any intent on making this available as Print on Demand so it can be added to a bookshelf alongside its predecessors?

Yes, it just needs an investment of time that's currently at a premium. It remains on my to-do list, might take a month or so to make happen (especially given that a physical proof must be generated & approved before it can be put on sale).

That's good news. I'd like to buy the printed version; do you think this appendix will be available as part of a printed bundle along with Volume 1-4?

Cart precedes horse error. :) Haven't even gotten to that point in the process, tho you have highlighted the potential need to provide a hardcover POD as well as softcover. :)

Print-on-demand options in both hardcover and softcover are available. It's worth noting for folks who already own the softcovers that the softcover format has a glossy finish on it, not matte like the softcovers.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
