p. 251
Kerberoi have a column for "Keys" (as in Key levels) and "Max Keys" (as in how many Keys they can have). Presumably the Max Keys column should be substituted for the Keys column, so Kerberoi at rivers 1/2/3/4/5 will have a maximum of 1/1/2/2/3 Keys.

There are multiple little blue boxes throughout the entry for the Stricken.

The first two levels listed under the Passion Curse (Passionate Curse 2 and 3) are mislabeled as Phantasmal Curse.

The Tier 1 Supernatural Benefit Deathsoul Initiation makes reference to ranked Keys.

The Tier 2 Supernatural Benefit Key Initiation makes reference to Keys from outside a Geists threshold as costing differently than other keys. The experience table gives a flat cost to any new key as 10 XP. It also mentions teachers, but I have yet to see any kind of time or teaching requirement for keys and manifestations in the book.

The Tier 3 Founding Merit Revenance (Merit 5)  mentions that the founder no longer loses psyche or has his permanent Psyche capped when resurrected. This is probably from an older version of the rules; as stands the benefit of the merit is dubious.

Dagnabbit, I assume they are probably em dashes but I'm not sure without going into the supplied text doc. I'll update when i get a chance.

To anyone that posts here, please feel free to point out any issues due to the graphic design, like the one I replied to. I mean real issues, not opinions.

Te sections for Changelings and Hunters on p. 34 aren't bolded like they are for the other supernaturals listed. It's under Death is Our Country: Other Supernaturals.

This is an em dash — a dash of that length.

This – that thing right there – is an en dash, used improperly. You use em dashes — these things right here — for that kind of clause separation.

On the Internet, you usually see two hyphens together as the poor man's em dash -- something like that.

On an up side, there are only a couple of the boxes. The rest of the dashes are fine.

Since it's been brought up and put down multiple places, I feel it merits mention here as well, just in case anybody looks to this thread for a compiled list of errors in the book.

Pages 64 and 69 refer to a Sin-Eater's second Key as being inherited from their Keystone. John Newman has stated that this is contrary to author intent. The correct text is on page 193: "The Threshold and Keys needn’t exactly match those of the geist or the Sin-Eater, but like attracts like."

- The precise penalty for what Resurrection fluctuates throughout the book:  I've seen: Lower Psyche by 1, Lower Max Synergy by 1, and Lower Max Synergy by 2.  I know the last one is what it says in the Resurrection section and the one we're meant to use, I thought I should mention the fluctuation.

- In addition, in the "Regaining Plasm" section, there is no mention of Regaining Plasm using the Virtue and Vice of your Archetype.  it's mentioned in the Archetype section but not in the obvious "Regaining Plasm" section.

I didn't write that section, but I can just about guarantee it should be Shroud rating.
