I just finished an offset lithography assignment in one of my classes. The result? 600 pages worth of Cherry notepad paper.

Below is the galley proof:

That's really neat. Can you buy it anywhere?

Thanks!

Nope, it couldn't be sold by anyone other than Cherry. I can use it personally, but that's as far as the design can go. :(

That's really nice!
I got an official Cherry notebook at a trade show, but it has got the new logo on it and plain dotted paper inside. :(

Paying attention to copyright laws? Pfft.

If I were in a position to make enough money to offset the cost of a lawsuit I might ignore them... Unfortunately that isn't the case. Old-logo Cherry notepads would have a pretty niche market. :lol:

I have typed and layouted a (scientific) book for the author.
So you think it would be OK if I were to print and sell a bootleg edition of it for my own profit?

I can send you the InDesign file if you want to chance it.

I just wrapped up the cutting and gluing.

The one on the left has a small alignment issue and a line of faded red dots through the logo at the top of the page. I'm willing to send those "B stock" pads out to anyone for the cost of shipping + gas.

Cherry: if you read this, I AM NOT MAKING A PROFIT.
