This procedure will clear the compositor of all blame.

Any questions which then arise lie between the author and the proofreader.
In the case of the reformed spellings, however, the departure from the ordinary appearance of the words is so great that the author cannot be allowed full freedom to set aside the office style.

If he is paying for the printing he may insist on his spelling.

If he is contributing to a periodical and the printing is done at the publisher's expense it is for the publisher to determine the style of printing to be used.
Any full consideration of the question of reformed spelling is hardly in place in this book.
