In addition to the pages, the album includes attractive covers and spines that can be used for a standard three-ring binder with clear plastic covers.

Printed Pages: If you don't want to print the pages from the CD, we print the pages, cover and spine for you on 67 pound, 8.5 x 11 inch white cardstock. We print with a high-resolution printer and all pages are checked carefully for paper defects and to make sure borders are aligned with the page edges (a common problem with standard printers). The net result is a beautiful, high-quality album that will last for many years.

Compact Disk: If you choose to purchase the CD, you will have TOTAL FLEXIBILITY to design your own album. Best of all, you don't have to learn how to use a new software package. If you own and know how to use Microsoft Word, you have everything you need. And you don't have to guess about the size of the stamps you don't own! The stamp sizes in this album are based either on precise measurements from the actual stamps or from careful research.

The CD includes the pages in two formats. For collectors who want to modify and design new pages, the pages are provided as Microsoft Word documents. For collectors who don't care to design new pages and/or don't own Microsoft Word, the pages are provided in PDF format.

In the interest of economy, the computer files provided are designed to create beautiful albums using off-the-shelf materials for binders and pages. The CD contains the pages in PDF format that can be printed on 8.5" x 11" paper. The "Specialist Collector's How-to Guide for Stamp Album Design" supplied on the CD even tells you how to recycle the stamp mounts from your current album.

The Microsoft Word files use straightforward features that require a minimal knowledge of the word processor's commands. A carefully documented how-to guide is provided for the specialist interested in creating new pages and/or modifying the existing pages. Working with the Microsoft Word files, all of the text can be easily modified, stamp sizes can be modified and you can add catalogue numbers from Scott or any other stamp numbering system.

This is one of a series of albums we are designing to cover all of the Pacific islands that comprise Polynesia, Melanesia and Micronesia.
