I received my parcel on time. Was intrigued to see what the issue was with the colour of the paper issue was. It's ok however PMI need to consider people who may have ailments with vision and dyslexia as this could become an issue with future accessibility etc. Other than that it will serve its purpose for my pending exam.

Pages are grey, but that was not a deal-breaker for me. I can read them just fine, no big deal. Using highlights are also okay. I can complain that I like to write with a pencil on the pages, and drop some notes, and because the background is grey it does not pop out as much as it should. I am glad I decided to purchase despite the negative comments.

I almost didn’t buy this set based on other reviews about reading difficulty. I’m glad I decided to go for it. I am able to read it perfectly fine, even in dim lighting. The letters are jet black and crisp, and I’m not finding the grey paper to be an issue at all. I’m about 20 pages in, and so far am very happy with the content and writing style.

DO NOT LISTEN TO THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS!! I was concerned for NOTHING! These books are in a notebook type form, the pages open and stay open easily and the font/color is fine. People are being overly picky. I’m an avid reader, not on a kindle, real books. I really appreciate good paper and a nice cover. This isn’t perfect by any means, but it’s got a nice cover and the information is clear and legible. I finally feel like I can study without having to stare at a screen. I’m old school so I appreciate tangible books, not ebooks. Definitely worth the investment if you’re like me! Good luck!!

O produto é muito bom.
Para os estudantes compensa tornar-se membro do PMI São Paulo e ter acesso a esses livros e muitos outros importantes, digitais, por um custo bem menor e em diversos idiomas.

The background of every page of this book is very gray resulting in poor contrast to the text. It is difficult, almost impossible, to read in some lighting conditions. The bottom of the first page states that the background color contains an "anti-counterfeiting" technology. It also states the paper is gray but it's not, it simply has very tiny black dots printed on the pages. I know that criminals could easily by-pass this "watermark" trick and create a copy. A determined crook could simply use a word processor and duplicate the entire book. This is an annoying and unnecessary tactic that also has to increase the manufacturing cost and raise the price to consumers. If you buy this book, be sure to read it under bright LED lighting.

I purchased this guide here on Amazon. I've seen several reviews regarding paper used for this guide. The paper is not thin as indicated in at least one review. Also I did not find the gray paper difficult to read. At least one person mentioned a watermark as interfering with readability. I do not see any watermark when reading the book. The only way you would possibly see a watermark is if you tried to copy a page out of the book. Also, just an FYI.... This is the same color/paper that was used in the 5th edition of the PMBOK which I also have and again I had no issues with readability, etc.
All in all this product is what I expected. Getting the Agile Practice Guide was an added bonus!

But I just went ahead and bought it, as I am preparing for PMP Exams and comfortable with hard print than reading book on laptop screen.
In spite of Covid19 restrictions imposed by many states, book got delivered to me in Mumbai from Gurgaon in just 3 days
Packing was excellent. Quality of printing, paper etc. is really great. The print is very clear.
