Hi,
Iām amazed by the quality of your work. Despite the language barrier, I think itās on a par with RenĆ© Bouillot (RIP), a renowned French author.
A thousand thanks and gratitude @bykynyhu

I donāt know if the problem is in the .md source submitted by @bykynyhu to @agriggio or whatever happened putting the book online, but if you watch at the ART book Table of Contents you can see some inconsistencies in the progressive order of the chapter 4.4.2 subsections as I report in the image below.

@Thierry007 and @clinart and others: thank you very much. Iām not that satisfied with it. However, the soon-to-be-completed improved and expanded Hungarian edition will be good.
@Topoldo: thatās my fault alone. It should not be forgotten that the basis of the book is the Hungarian edition. ART sorts CTL scripts into ABC in the user interface according to the language of choice. The order will be different on the Hungarian and different on the English user interface. The serial numbering of the chapters is, of course, according to the Hungarian language. I certainly did not want the chapter on the same topic in the English version to have a different serial number than in the underlying Hungarian version. However, I would have liked the text of the book (and the table of contents) to have the scripts in the order shown in the program. I thought it was more important than numbering the chapters. If you think itās better, Iāll take an hour and rearrange the scripts in the order according to the Hungarian version (according to chapter serial numbers), and then the serial numbering will be correct. However, the order of the scripts will not be the same as that seen in the English user interface.
@bykynyhu: no problem!
Rather, many thanks for your work! As always, everything can be improved , but we all have a big debt with you for your invaluable work!

@Topoldo: Thank you very much for the kind words! And I donāt deny that Iām happy about it. Very honorable. Thank you.
I feel that no one owes me anything. The book was also completed independently of the ART website, which can be freely downloaded from my website. It didnāt cost me anything (apart from a little work and a little goodwill) that the book could also be published on the ART website. I am glad that I was able to contribute to the project and possibly help some people with it. I am grateful to be able to use this great program and to the community for always helping me on this forum when I had difficulty with ART (a few times).
I have a total of three free downloadable books. The composition is the best, which is 430 pages long. It is different from commercially available books in that it also contains a lot of photos to illustrate the topics, most photos also have a few sentences of explanation. It is related to ART (loosely) in such a way that the composition is not only about making the recording with the best image cropping, but also the composition can be improved during post-processing (with colors, sharpening/blurring, highlighting the appropriate parts, unnecessary image elements by cutting and many other ways). So it is also useful to know the rules of composition when working with ART. I have already thought about creating an English version, but it would only make sense to deal with it if there is a need for it.
Going back to the ART book, it also contains one or two serious mistakes, because ART doesnāt work exactly as I described it. Iām sorry.

Hi,
I uploaded the English and Hungarian versions of the second edition of the ART book. In my opinion, these are much better than the versions currently published on the ART website.

Were you referring to your site as the most recent source??
I could only find the Hungarian one. But I am old and blind 
Sorry, I wasnāt clear enough. I uploaded this version for only @agriggio and I hope it will replace the English and Hungarian versions on the ART website with these new versions.
These latest versions are not available on my website.

Hi,
Thanks for the new contributions! I am currently away from my computer, Iāll update the version on the webpage as soon as I have the chance
Hi,
Thank you. Itās not urgent, just when you have time. I probably wonāt make more versions anymore. This English version may already be worth improving and developing.
The latest version of the book can be downloaded from my website in English and Hungarian.

Hi,
Thanks for posting new versions of the book. The problem is that (probably by mistake) the English figures are also displayed for the Hungarian version. Please correct this.
Thank you very much.
Do you still have the Hungarian version available somewhere on your webpage? Iād rather link to that than duplicate all the figures, as the rest of the documentation is English only and I would not be able to maintain the two aligned if the English version evolved
Thanks!
OK. Link: https://bykyny.hu/art-book-01.html
