When I archive the projects--which I do AFTER two warnings/alerts to the client that I'm going to do this--I nuke all the materials, except for the final files (ePUB, MOBI, and MOBI source file, whether slightly-altered ePUB or zipped folder). So...could be dicey. Hope not.
Oh, HELLS no. No way. I have never met any client that was tradepubbed that wasn't convinced that their publisher had "done them wrong" in the finances department. So...nah. I'm never going down that path.
No, they'll get it, but trust me, I see it instantly. ;-) INSTANTLY, I assure you. It's like being in Star Trek. Scotty beams the notices from them to me, faster than you can say, "Kindle Quality Notice." :-)
Sorry, Cins, I genuinely don't know to what you are referring?

There is another forum that I refuse to link too that has a writer's area. I am sure most of the posters there will be whining about that warning.
It used to be fabulous there until the newbies started telling the successfuls that the successfuls knew nothing about book publishing.
I may wander over there since when I left there, the "authors" were literally posting that errors don't matter if the story is good.
