The price per page of A&A based on institutional subscription has fluctuated over the years. Starting in 1969 with DM 0.08 for a page in the Main Journal, the price went up up and settled near DM 0.18 in the early 1980s. The introduction of Latex-based publishing led to a price decrease averaging at just below DM 0.15. After the restructuring (a new publisher, and the merging of the Main Journal and the Supplement Series) the price per page is now EUR 0.16 (for 19.000 pages per year). The price development of 1969 until 1998 (only the old Main Journal) is available (prices in DM).
