Some graphic programs have a filter that will reduce a picture to look like simple black and white lines. Its actually a pretty cool effect.
To put my original post better, though, I'd simply like the colour fill removed from the image on the title page for the econo printer friendly version, if possible.

Booklet Binding 101, or, Don't Break your Stapler and Avoid Bulging.
1) Fold each separate sheet to a sharp crease in the exact centre, folding the sheet in the way it will lie in the booklet, of course.
2) Mark an odd number of dots, equally spaced at about 2cm or three-quarters of an inch apart, down the inside of the crease in the center sheet. The end dots should be further from the ends of the crease than the dot spacing.
3) Stack the sheets in their correct order and rest one edge on a flat surface. The pages will open out to roughly a right angle.
4) Use a big needle to pierce through the stack at each dot, working from inside the crease until the needle point has emerged through the crease in the outermost sheet. This takes a little time and considerable force. A cork held against the place of emergence helps to avoid injury.
5) Thread a smaller needle with heavy thread (I used embroidery cotton) and, beginning from the inside at one of the end holes, sew inward through the next hole, out of the next and so on, When you reach the last hole, work back to the hole before the one you began at: both thread ends are now inside the booklet centre fold: knot them together neatly.
6) Finally, using a metal straight-edge and a craft knife (or a guillotine if you have access to one) trim the open edges to the same width (stacking the folded pages makes the middle ones protrude further, as no doubt many have noticed).
Result: a splendid little volume to use and treasure.

Hello. Just wanted to mention that on page 64 for production wonders, the apostolic palace should be mentioned as a wonder that enhances hammers. The palace provides hammers for every religious building in a city with it's religion. The reference guide is awesome by the way. I've printed out every version. Thanks for your work.

According to my experience, it is a 2 hammer penalty, not bonus. Or else there is a bug. There have still been no explanations offered for the bug report posted at Monasteries costing two hammers production a turn. Since I'm getting impatient waiting for an answer, and forum searches don't turn up anything, does anyone here have an explanation? And BTW, I did NOT defy any AP resolutions. Most people seem to cite that as the reason for the hammer penalty.

Hippodrome doesn't allow Artists. Rathaus allows 1 Spy specialist to be assigned just like Courthouse.
I have something to ask about those AI attitudes. What difference is between aggression level and peace probablities, as they don't make any sense for me (for example, Mao Zedong is Medium, 0/30/80/100 and Napoleon is High, 10/50/90/100). Also, I noticed that Charlemagne is the one and only leader with "rarely" WW construction. Is it sure that he isn't "very rarely" or "sometimes" like many else?

Gandhi favors Universal Suffrage (at least in versions: 1.00, 1.52, 1.61, 2.00, 2.08, 3.00 and 3.02).
I noticed a mistake: on page 43 Jet Fighter and Stealth Bomber reqs are wrong, please correct them dj_anion:
- Jet Fighter reqs AF and Oil and Aluminum (not AF and Oil or Aluminum)
- Stealth Bomber reqs Stealth and Robotics and Oil and Aluminum (not Stealth and Robotics and Oil or Uranium)

Why so much problems and complicating the scenario?
Just take your medium sized stapler, open it up, move these lousy 34 sheets to your wooden (uncoated) breakfast table, center the sheets, point your stapler well and press strongly and fast - but not too fast, to avoid buckling of these small tiny things - and voilà! Repeat this, pull the booklet from your wooden table, close the cramps and everything fine!

The Peace Probability shows the probability that the leader will NOT start planning for war each turn, when they are Furious/Annoyed/Cautious/Pleased. Any leader with 0 as the first one means that if they are ever Furious with you, they WILL declare war sooner or later. Leaders will not plan to go to war with you at Friendly, ever, but if they start the plan before they get to Friendly, they won't stop it.

To further elaborate, each turn the AI will run a algorithm that decides whether it wants to declare war on you (or anyone else for that matter). That algorithm does not take into consideration diplomacy levels, but does take into account the aggression rating. If the algorithm comes back with a decision to prepare for war, the game then looks to the diplomacy levels to possibly override the decision. Those numbers are the % chance that the decision will be overridden for each diplomacy level. For example, at Furious, a DoW decision will never be overridden, at friendly it always will.
Hm, maybe the post right above that one?

Correct! It refers to the attitude of the leader, i.e., furious, annoyed, pleased, et al. The two posts are related.
