Question about Binding

[oshfdk]

There is a recent thread about binding:
You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.

4) If the authors were not experienced, could they have written the MS as singlians still intending for them to be bound?

I think they were at least considering the possibility that it could be bound eventually. There is a way to fold each bifolio in a way that no text crosses the gutter. Given a large number of labels and irregular block of texts, this is unlikely to be an accident. Very rarely images would cross the gutter (which could still work with binding if the image was intended for the centerfold), but as far as I know this never happens with the text.

Especially convincing with pages like You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. where the text spans the whole wide foldout and yet a clear gap was reserved for the binding.
