Wow, this is something completely different from all the other forum posts here. When you read a chess book, do you prefer small (like A5) or bigger (more towards A4) pages, do you prefer one-column text or two-column text. And, in case of a two-column layout, do you prefer the textmoves (the real game moves) to be typeset as this:

1. e4 e5
2. Nf3 Nc6
3. d4 exd4

Or like this:
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 exd4

And, do you prefer the book to use symbols, or just the letters like I did above?

And last but not least, as in many science books, they have pages that are wider than normal and extra width outside margins in which they place figures or pictures or stuff. What about that method? Just one-column text, moves next to each other (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3...) instead of in a "list" type order and the diagrams in the margin.

I'm asking about these questions because I've seen a lot of books and many books use different types of layout. And since I want to write an article or two in pdf format (mostly for myself, but still... it has to look nice )

So anyway... any comments are welcome.
Thanks in advance
