Is this on a normal sized print?
Could you possibly reduce the page count by enlarging the length and width of the book to add more page space? Or is it that calculation at max size?
Then again, 106 sessions each ten pages long would do it.
Thank you though for the information
I'm not sure what you have in mind when you say "normal sized print."
The ballpark total page count given is for a 6 x 9 printing, the standard for all L/L publications. Total page count could certainly be reduced by creating a larger page size, but 6x9 is ideal for optimal reading width. The general upper limit recommended for characters per line (spaces included) is 75. Using our standard font at 12-point yields an average of 67 or so characters per line in a 6x9 page size.
Widen the book any further and columns may become necessary.
Also, the book will include more than just the 106 sessions. New intro, foreword, appendices, massive index, hopefully a photo gallery, etc. So it will probably exceed 1,000 pages.
When the time comes we'll print the book in parts. We don't know the divisions yet, but it won't be four books like the original. Probably three. The single-volume edition, if achievable, would just be a special, additional way to print the book.

The sessions vary in length. They can't be made to fit into a uniform size.
Hope that information helps answer your questions.
