I have seen a 'binder's error'
Printer's errors are corrected in proofs.
I don't think it is helpful to pretend that
the technology is perfect. After all, the
trend has been to foist on an unsuspecting
public of students and faculty the task of
quality control. Production disciplines that
once were the province of highly paid
technicians in the graphic arts industry
can hardly be acquired with ease.
Best wishes,
