thanateFully closed windows starting at about 8:30 this morning have kept the downstairs at an air-conditioning sort of temperature all day. Upstairs is only pleasantly warm, rather than roasting. Classy! (Ok, admittedly it's only an 80 degree day today, but still, a definite improvement over the old ones.)
Dining room:
Note the broken cord in the before picture; half the old windows didn't actually open...
New windows open top and bottom, are beautifully clear (although you can definitely see the greenish tint to the low-e coatings when two panes overlap), and are double-hung so they can be angled out for easy cleaning. Glamorous! I'm still getting the hang of the half screen thing, though; if you're going to put stops in so that the top windows only open so far, it makes no sense to me that you can't open the bottom of the window to make up the difference in air volume. Oh well;![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
grauwulf looked into it, and we can easily get full screens made for any of the windows where I decide it's important to have them.
---and on an unrelated note: Does anyone know if there's a way to print a many page PDF in a format that allows it to be bound as a book (ie, paginated to sew into signatures)?

Date: 2009-06-01 08:37 pm (UTC)Our office printer has a "duplex" function under "properties." I set it to "left justify" to leave a margin for binding.
Don't know if you are aware of this, but you can also collate all of your pdfs into one pdf. Just select "documents" and go to "insert pages." I'm able to select another pdf and select where in the document to put it - end, middle, beginning, after page 33, etc. Hope that helps.
