This is looking really good. I think the screenshots are fine. They illustrate the new functionality well, so unless you want to invest time into some super slick ones, I wouldn't worry.
| Quarto 1.9 adds Typst book projects, article margin layout via Marginalia, and offline package bundling with `typst-gather`. | ||

If we publish before the release we should add a pre-release feature callout here.

| Naturally, book and article layout can be combined: | ||

I notice the box on this page around "A. Additional Resources" doesn't go all the way to the edge of the page, like the first example. I'd expect it to align with some other vertical, e.g. the edge of the page, or the inner or outer edge of the margin content.

Yes... Maybe it's overselling to say they can naturally be combined.
It is completely functional, but it will require more work to properly integrate article layout and book layout at the template/extension level.
I am 99% certain that nothing more will need to change in Quarto core, so I declared success here.
But the quarto-orange-book extension still needs work here, and probably contributions upstream to the Typst package.

I changed this to a callout with no screenshots. It works but layout is not ready to show off.
Add column: margin code cell option, fig-column/tbl-column, fig-cap-location/tbl-cap-location, and asides to the article layout bullet list. Reframe intro around feature parity with LaTeX.
…, copy edits - Add lightbox with 4-col book and 3-col article screenshot groups - Add fig-alt text on all screenshots and image-alt in front matter - Add landscape thumbnail image - Add brand.yml customization example - Split long bullet, improve captions, fix callout tone, tighten closing

Thanks @cwickham, excellent feedback. I think the new draft covers everything. I prefer to post both of the blog posts after release, because there is are important links into the docs, and I don't think we should post links to the prerelease docs. Alternatively, we could post and then update the links after release, but that seems fiddly. |

@cwickham here's a first draft
I wish I had nicer examples for screenshots - these are just test cases.
