Nice to know
Beethoven tells his Leipzig publisher that he will have a copy of the violin part of op. 74 made on "fine paper" and will send it to Leipzig, so that the changes he wants can be done correctly and misunderstandings can be ruled out.
As far as the other works are concerned he asks for proofs alongside his engraver's model so that he can proofread on time.
