[Evertype]

Evertype would like to announce the publication of a new edition of Emily Nonnen's 1870 translation into Swedish of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Alices Äventyr i Sagolandet. The book uses John Tenniel's classic illustrations, with text on them localized into Swedish (so instead of "DRINK ME", the bottle says "DRICK MIG", etc.). A page with links to Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk is available at http://www.evertype.com/books/alice-sv.html . Bookstores can order copies at a discount from the publisher.

How edo they change the text on the illustrations into Swedish? That must be hard. Is it very technical?

[Evertype]

I change black pixels to white ones and white pixels to black ones.

Okay.
Will you be publishing Nabokov's Alice translation?

[Evertype]

Most likely.

[3rdpoliceman]

Excellent.
