Yes, as I said, I singed up using the coupon code. Or is there yet some other code
I missed?
It automatically added TDPL to the 0-slot bookshelf.
In the table of contents there are per chapter downloads which each cost one
download token.
On the online reading page I can print individual pages (with watermark) but
downloads again cost tokens.
Which button am I missing?
