As part of cataloguing books, I have to flip through them, and I always cringe at how academic texts always have horrific fonts and highly pixelated, low-res images. It happens way more then you'd think.
My favorite was some charts a guy [who probably has a doctorate, or at least a masters] drew with ball point pen, pencil crayon and high lighters with his own partly legible handwriting, and put in full colour into his expensive textbook.
Production values are apparently not covered at some schools.
