This comes up at least once a month and it always starts and finishers the same way.
I have been in the printing and publishing business for over 50 years, but I have never been a "printer" per se...
I have worked with printers at some of the best publishing houses in the country, including Disney, Norman Rockwell, the lead printer at the Smithsonian, and others.
I do what they tell me. So when I got to FAA ten years ago, I started doing what they told me. I trusted what they told me because I saw they head over 500,000 members, including large companies like Conde Nest, Sports Illustrated, and dozens of others that owned their own publishing houses and employed top printers.
If it was good enough for them, it was good enough for me. 10 years later, several thousand sales, and now there are over a million FAA members and even more large companies that own publishing/printing houses.
If this 25-meg thing was a big problem... FAA would have been out of business by now.
This comes up all the time, and it is the same answer... nothing is going to change in the near future.
