Biblio Times 1.4 is about the small choices that make a paper yours. Signal, the magazine in the grotesk, now comes in five colourways, orange, cobalt, moss, rose and monochrome, and in four layouts: Dial, Picture, Numeral and Block. Choose them when you start the magazine, or later in the menu under its name.
Your papers can now be put in the order you like. On All papers, hold a paper to move it along, or drag it where you want it. Your first paper stays first, as the one printed before dawn.
You also choose more of how stories print. Print stories as they open, in Settings, prints each story the moment you open it, with no tap; it is off unless you turn it on, and waits for your tap in Low Data Mode. Free stories only, at the top of Sources, leaves out the sources that keep their stories for subscribers, and marks them For Subscribers in the list. A source whose stories will not print here three times running now opens them at the publisher, and offers to stop printing it in this paper.
On a Mac, the front page now carries as much news as it does on a phone. A laptop's screen is short, so the page comes folded, as a real one does: scroll down, or press Space, to read below the fold, and scroll up to fold it again.
Thai now sets in faces made to sit beside each edition's own type, and is no longer letter-spaced in headlines and magazines. A magazine issue printed again takes the place of the one it reprints, and a capital J no longer loses its tail in a headline.
The Press Pass is US$14.99 until the end of 31 October, Pacific time, then US$19.99. Press Founder is US$79 until 16 November, then US$99. Both are bought once. Biblio Times 1.4 is on the App Store now, for iPhone, iPad and Mac. More about the paper at biblio.ink/times.
