It is guess work but it looks like it is more manageable than some
frequency changes I've had to deal with (like going from monthly to 8
per year and not knowing what months are skipped, etc.). The print
issues are proportional to the online issues for most of the titles.
Inhalation Toxicology is the only one that appears to present a problem
as it goes from 14 to 4 issues, but I don't imagine it is too difficult
to estimate a quarterly based on a monthly with a couple of extra
issues.

Yes, a pain in the butt this first year.  But it isn't as horrible as it
might have been.  I agree that it would be more re-assuring if they
would include the printing schedules within the print issues but at
least they gave out some warning in advance to prepare for this.  Too
many times, we have to deal with these changes totally after the fact.
I'd take a dozen T&F journals any day over some of the irregulars we try
to corral for our collections.
