Frequently Asked Questions

Why is Spindrift only distributed in digital format?

Because it keeps our production and distribution costs down to a bare minimum. This allows us to pass the savings on to you in an unprecedentedly cheap subscription rate.

Will there ever be a hardcopy version of Spindrift?

There is when you print it out on your inkjet. Apart from that, there are no plans to produce a printed version.

Can my company get bulk subscriptions?

Absolutely. See the Subscribe page.

Can I get a free sub because I'm an Important Person?

What, at this price? No. There are no free subs.

I can't copy text or images from Spindrift. Am I technically challenged?

Spindrift is copy protected. If you're technically challenged it's not because of this.

Why do the colours in Spindrift look so garish and ugly?

The colours in Spindrift are soft and pastel. Try calibrating your monitor and making sure all your equipment is colour managed. Also make sure you are using Acrobat or Adobe Reader and not another PDF viewer.

What's to stop me sending my copy of Spindrift to everyone I know?

Nothing but your own honesty and integrity. We are a few people running a small operation which we hope, at some point, will pay for itself. If you feel good about ripping us off, go right ahead. Karma catches up.

Can I get reprints of articles from Spindrift?

Yes. Talk to Laurel about reprint rates. Select "Editorial" in the Contact form above.
