I'm not doing *anything*.

Ingram Spark has the PDF, and they print when someone asks them to.
They have wholesale agreements with Amazon, such that if anyone
orders the book from Amazon, magic happens and a book appears at the
requester's door.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Complete-Lojban-Language-John-Cowan/dp/0966028325/
is very clearly being printed on demand in this fashion, because
it's (1) approximately the right price (2) sold by amazon.co.uk and
(3) eligible for Prime shipping.

This is all part of the agreements between Ingram and Amazon; as
Ingram is the largest publisher in the world, I would expect Ingram
books to be printed on demand for any Amazon in the world, because
Amazon very very much does not want to make Ingram unhappy.

Is there a specific problem that you're worried about, Gleki?
