In terms of paper estimates:
- 60 page disorientation = 15 sheets/guide
- One case = 2500 sheets
- So, for simplicity sake, if we were to make 2500 guides, we would need 15 cases. (about $650)

We print out good, good copies of everything (on 11x17, so 2 pages per sheet), take photos of 'em, and transfer them to "plates". The costs are for: film, plates, paper, and colored ink.
- Plates are $3 each -- so a 64 page guide would need 32 plates -- $96.
- Film would be about $90.
- Colored ink?
- Paper: at 60 pages, 2000 copies...
- . on Environment: $2,200
- . on Exact Opaque: $670
