Thank you! All the details add up. I do my best to capture all the oddities in spacing and characters even if it's funky. For example, the @ signs and parenthesis are different fonts and the spacing between letters and words is generally pretty inconsistent and tailored to match the original. Reproducing the illustrations can also be really time consuming.

And...I just noticed a typo on step 6 in the mockup above so here's a new one. I'm not sure the type is exactly right for the steps. Looks a little heavier in the original, but I'll see how it outputs.
