I just opened my spanking new FreeBSD 14 Handbook in 2 volumes and it's glorious:

I haven't had the time to go printing a set since 11.2, which fit in a single book.

It's annoying to have to try to read the thing online. It's great as a reference, but the paper version is much, much better for studying. Too bad, it's not produced by freebd.org, but Lulu did the trick after a bit of patience. I chose the cream cuz it's easier on the old eyes.

Anyhow, many thanks to the awesome authors who've written the only readable, printable handbook for unixy stuff I've come across.
 
I find myself reading the handbook on my phone rather often while setting up a new system.

It is nice you have a book printed is what I was thinking. However, the handbook is a great wealth of information that is so well formatted and easy to use.

How can I order one of these? I would like to have a copy to carry in my backpack.

Sadly, it's a print on demand thing. Upload your pdf, design a cover, select paper, etc. Then add it to your cart. That's what I meant by wishing it was produced by freebsd.org
 
I once tried to print off a C++ programming textbook from PDF when I was in college... ... back in 2002. Over 1,000 pages. Lab admins were flabbergasted that I was using so much paper at end of the term. ?
