Are these scans or real typeset editions?

Typeset. We take a public-domain source text, set it ourselves, and produce a clean PDF with a designed cover. Nothing is photographed from an old book, so the text is crisp and searchable rather than blotchy.

Why are the texts free to sell?

Because the works themselves are in the public domain — the author died long ago and the translation is out of copyright. What we sell is the edition: the typesetting, the cover, the editorial note. Each product page names the source and the translator so you can check.

How do I get the file after paying?

It appears in My Account → Downloads the moment the order completes, and the same link is emailed to you. No waiting, no dispatch.

Can I print it?

Yes, for your own use. The pages are set at A5, which prints two-up on A4 or US Letter without shrinking the type too far.

Can I share it with my class or library?

Not by passing the file around. For a class, a reading group or an institution, write to us — we arrange bulk licences with a proper paper trail, and the price per copy drops.

Do you ship anything?

No. There is nothing physical in the shop, so there is no shipping fee and no customs paperwork.

What if the download does not work?

Send the order number and we reissue the link, usually the same day. If the file itself is faulty, we replace it or refund it — see Refunds and Returns.

Which currencies can I pay in?

Prices are set in US dollars, with a euro display for visitors from the euro area. Your card is charged in the currency shown at checkout.

Do you keep my card details?

No. Payment runs through PayPal or Stripe, and we only ever see a confirmation and the last four digits.

Will you publish more titles?

Yes, steadily — the public domain is large. If there is a particular translation you want, tell us and it moves up the list.
