I have found a few errors in the Steiner Pages. Either errors or small omissions or situations where the Steiner Page assumed a mini-sheet and I have only the individual stamps. When this happens I use AlbumEasy to create a new page that looks just like the Steiner Pages. Between the Steiner Pages and AlbumEasy I find all my album needs are covered.
Regards ... Tim.

Upon notification, have found Bill Steiner willing to make the requested corrections/modifications.
Of course this only benefits current subscribers.

Before I started using Album Easy, I was making up my pages in a graphics program. I took Steiner's pdf's and modified them, sorting them into chronological order, adding info and widened them to fit into page protectors. I always found errors, but just kept mum about them, as when they corrected a page, they made extra work for me. The frames and text of the various stamps were joined up into odd groupings that could no longer be separated.
Album Easy is too easy. I still have the Steiner pages, but why? I should just delete them now.

Bill leaves recent correction pages available to all for a period of time - 10 months at present. So, once your subscription expires, you would need to check occasionally for new correction pages. I have correction pages back to 2019 but had downloaded them all whether I was interested in the country or not earlier this year before my subscription ended. These pages do not include new pages for current issues.
I have submitted quite a few errors (most often stamp box size) to him and notice most show in the correction pages within a couple of months plus have shared some of my custom versions to him such as my recent 1992-97 Hong Kong Machins. From my analysis he had a duplicate page for one souvenir sheet. He does not always respond when I submit corrections.
"The frames and text of the various stamps were joined up into odd groupings that could no longer be separated."
When I open the pages in LibreOffice Draw I have to use the Split function to remove groupings in order to modify individual objects. When I create pages in Scribus the group function makes it easier to align a bunch of objects at once, etc. For example, once you create a row you group them then center the group and adjust spacing from above objects.

I use the Steiner Pages for my Netherlands Indies / Indonesia Revolutionary Issues. My pages are a few years old, and I think I found an error. I'd like to compare with someone who has these pages.
Please PM me if you can help.
