# typography-for-lawyers
Commented Pollen source for typographyforlawyers.com
## © 2015 Matthew Butterick
This is the source code for the Typography for Lawyers [web-based book](http://typographyforlawyers.com), which is an abbreviated version of the [paperback](http://typo.la/oc).
The website is built with [Pollen](http://pollenpub.com). Im sharing this code as a Pollen sample project. Because when Im trying to learn a new programming tool, I prefer to study real projects rather than synthetic examples.
To run this project, you need to first install [Racket](https://github.com/racket/racket) and [Pollen](https://github.com/mbutterick/pollen).
## Optional installation
Using Racket 6.0+, install from the command line:
raco pkg install pollen-tfl
And update like so:
raco pkg update --update-deps pollen-tfl
Installation is optional because you can also clone the repo in the usual ways and run it with Pollen.
## But this repo is not open source
Everything in this repository belongs to me and not you.
I give you permission to use this repo to learn about Pollen, including running and modifying the files.
I also give you permission to reuse or adapt any of the Racket & Pollen source code, or JavaScript / CSS / HTML, for your own Racket & Pollen projects.
I do **NOT** give you permission to reuse any of the content of this web-based book (including text, images, and PDFs), nor the fonts that are embedded in the CSS. Why not? Because thats the stuff I sell for money so that I can keep [Pollen](http://pollenpub.com) itself under a GPL license. Lets not mess with a good thing.
If you have questions not covered here, please post them on the Pollen mailing list: http://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/pollenpub
