Still no B&W images added. I can stuff them all at the front of the book if you really want a PDF, but it's not the most elegant solution.

Date a live vol 4 is complete, but there's a need for editions, so at least a week(Or less) to the PDFs

Seeing that Maou to Fushihime was in 6 of september(Your request of course), there's already enough time to the editions to be done, now is just wait until someone do it.

The size of a PDF page can be anything you want. The "normal" size of PDFs you will encounter anywhere on the web will be either US Letter or A4. The size of the image will probably look bigger then the size of the page because it will be scanned at 300dpi or 600dpi (for really high-res scans), whereas normal computer monitors show things at 72dpi; so it will look bigger on a pixel-to-pixel comparison.

All my PDFs simply take the original image (at 300dpi or whatever) and resize it to fit approximately an A4 page. When you build your PDF you should have the option to resize the images to the "normal" DPI or leave it as is (I believe that by default Adobe's products resize the images to 72dpi). By leaving the images at the original resolution it means that on higher resolution displays (such as ipads which are about 250dpi) you get nice clear images, whereas if you resize them down to normal monitor dpi (72dpi) the images appear blocky or blurry.

Hopefully from that chunk of text it makes sense as to why the images seem so "large" in comparison to page size.
I understand now. Arigatou denormative sensei!!

Indonesian and Polish version have the images inserted, the English ones don't. Check under the File Usage section: http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index ... 15_004.jpg

DaL v4/v6 can wait a few days for polish.

Sorry, can anyone try to do the PDF for Date A Live 4?, and also I'd like to see one of Ore no Kanojo to Osananajimi ga Shuraba Sugiru.

And yes, I'm kinda new here, I logged in for this, but I've been actually using Baka-Tsuki for most english light novels (even though I'm spanish speaker... but yeah), in any case, I'll be checking daily this post for any answers :)

EDIT:I'm a stupid one, sorry for not reading, I'll wait the week of DaL4 then xD

Whilst on the subject, would you mind remaking Volume 4 since the names of places like 水坂岭 have now been translated as well.

Don't rush him. Rushing only leads to imperfect results and is usually counter-productive.

Okay, I see that you are only asking a question, nothing more or less, so it's okay... But I will ask you guys to refrain about asking "When something will be done?", it doesn't apply only for the translations. PDF, ePUBs and other are included.

I don't mind it so much since I'm known somewhat well known for my absentmindedness iRL. But yeah, it's not a good idea to make an exception for one person anyway.

I don't mind PMs if I haven't seemed to have made a PDF for a series by a week after its been released since I don't actually follow a lot of the series I PDF; but I'll post here if there's any obvious delays. (Such as Maou na Ore to Fushihime no Yubiwa which is causing me no end of grief; I can get something working but most of the references are mangled. :( )

Anyway, it looks like my code has stuffed up DaL v6 or something so I'll need to look into that; other then that, Oda v4 and v7 are up; as is Ichiban Ushiro no Korone-chuujou v7. >.>

Currently trying being traumatised by DxD v15's artwork and looking around to see if I can find some that sucks less. Not looking hopeful so it'll probably be done tomorrow sometime.

Bug fix that was holding up this, so PDF has been completed and is in the appropriate folder.

Also DaL v6 has been rebuilt; and Chrome Shelled Regios v10 as well.
