Triumph World

[Steve C]

I have just received my April-May copy of Triumph World, and ye Gods, they have "redesigned" it, and not for the better. The pages are now a kind of matt finish recycled Izal bog paper, and the colour images look like poor colour photocopies, with no depth or definition. Frankly, it is awful, and I will be telling them so. I doubt I will be renewing my subs. What do any other subscribers out there think?

 

Yours, feeling cheated

I bought a subscription and this was my first one. I'll admit I was surprised at the poor quality of the paper.

I haven't read it in years but always felt that eventually they were going to run out of material... I never thought that meant the actual paper!

 

(and Lord I remember Izal bog paper... forerunner to Teflon I think.)

I'm a TW subscriber - no issues with the new look as it was a pretty cluttered layout before, but the paper is awful! I shall be providing feedback as requested in the editorial.

Well, I wrote to the editor praising the new look, but criticising the paper used inside, and was delighted to receive an immediate reply. The publisher has promised an improved paper stock for the next issue - more aligned with the previous quality, which is great news. Top marks to TW editor, Simon Goldsworthy, for both responding to both my message and addressing the paper issue - thank you.
