Interesting: site:www.e-reading.link/bookreader.php – Google Search.
Likely highly illegal, but it has a lot of things in PDF that I already have on paper of stuff that is hard to get otherwise.

A few nice PDFs on fonts and font designer handwriting
Posted by jpluimers on 2012/08/10
In my early software developer years, I have been into scaleable fonts, PostScript and PDF very much.
Over the years, I kept an eye on that, and recently I found a few nice PDFs about fonts and designer handwriting:
- An Alphabet Book by Ben Fry, an expert in data visualization. There is some great other stuff on his personal web site.
- Handwritten Typographers showing the handwriting of some famous typographers. There are very few good handwriting fonts, and in between the lines, that PDF shows you why.

A few updates to: Google Calendar – printing multiple months or weeks to PDF
Posted by jpluimers on 2010/07/15
Thanks to Kilian Croese, I updated the Google Calendar – printing multiple months or weeks to PDF posting with this info:
- No need to use Fiddler any more for obtaining the base printing URL.
- Added information for these parameters:
- pfs (font size)
- po (page orientation)
- pbw (black & white)
- In addition, I improved the documentation on the parameter rand (which is a JavaScript EPOCH value)
- Finally I dug a bit deeper into the page sources, and added information about these parameters:
- pjs (PDF Printing Java Script)
- pda (PDF download)
The original post is now both far easier to use, and much more complete.
