Print the Divina Commedia in just 7 pages

With Papiro you can print the full Divina Commedia by Dante Alighieri (19.567 lines for 557KB of plain text) in just 7 pages. It is easy:

./papiro.sh -z -c divina-commedia.txt

About 44 pages would be required to print it with a 6pt font size (average minimum readeable size, while for an good OCR should be at least 9pt) in a multi column document, without taking advantage of any error correction. Spot the differences:

Multi columns 6pt print vs QR Codes

Ok, you can't read it at a glance, but has a nice nerd factor :)

If you are a real paranoid archivist feel free to increase the error correction level, but you have to invest even 15 pages:

./papiro.sh -z -c divina-commedia.txt -lH

Expensive, but suitable for a military-grade disaster recovery plan for italian literature.
