The ARP has the distinction of producing one of the nicest American editions of (their version of) the Westminster Standards in 1799, published by the New York printers T & J. Swords. I detail some of this in part two of a series of three articles on the Swords in the 2007 of The Confessional Presbyterian.
Antiquary: T. & J. Swords. Part Two. Two Large Presbyterian Works. The second of the two works was Samuel Miller's A Brief Retrospect of the Eighteenth Century. The 1799 ARP standards can still be found at reasonable prices (for what it is). The ARP sadly also has the distinction of producing perhaps one of the most careless edition as well in recent years. For that see my article. See my comments in the same issue in the critical text of the first fifty questions of the larger catechism, pp. 78-79.

When heresy rises in an evangelical body, it is never frank and open. It always begins by skulking, and assuming a disguise. Its advocates, when together, boast of great improvements, and congratulate one another on having gone greatly beyond the ‘old dead orthodoxy,’ and on having left behind many of its antiquated errors: but when taxed with deviations from the received faith, they complain of the unreasonableness of their accusers, as they ‘differ from it only in words.’ This has been the standing course of errorists ever since the apostolic age. Samuel Miller, Introductory essay, The Articles of the Synod of Dort (1841).
