[libreoffice-design] Re: how it this brochure printed?

Hi Tim

Agreed on all of this.

I am also looking for an A4 source which I cannot get unless I special 
order from Staples. I will see if it works and let you know. I imagine 
that it will cost more ... before I do this, I will see if I can order 
this from a local printing shop where my music group gets their 
pamphlets printed; they may be able to get it at a cheaper rate.

Re: the "Open Sans Condensed", I am pointing people to go to the site 
you suggested, but more directly at this address:


--> font family:
http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/download/open-sans-condensed
--> font-face kit:
http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fontfacekit/open-sans-condensed

Cheers,

Marc
