Just Lorem Ipsum: Self-Publishing With Open-Source Software: One Hunderd Pages of Lorem Ipsum

Just Lorem Ipsum is a demonstration of the use of open-source software for self-publishing. It contains one hundred pages of filler text, specifically, lorem ipsum, arranged in ten chapters. It has an appendix that describes its production.

Do not buy this book if you are expecting something to read! The full text and a description of the production of the book are available free on my blog, JohnOsterhout.com. If you want to have a copy as a joke or to show your friends, by all means, buy a copy. I'll spend the money on good beer, I promise.

I used Linux (Ubuntu) as the operating system for all my computers. All of the software I used is available free. The interior of Just Lorem Ipsum and the cover were produced with Scribus. Graphics were handled with the GIMP and Inkscape. I used LibreOffice for word processing. All of the fonts used are available at no cost.
