[Hidden-tech] print on demand

[Greg Caulton]

Lynne:

Check out Amazon’s CreateSpace. They have free cover design and text processes but they’re both crap, pardon my French!

You design the whole book — cover and text —  in your usual apps and upload PDFs. They will add the ISBN numbers which is otherwise a bit of a pain.

BTW, it’s best to create the CS account with your client sitting next to you as they require a lot of the author’s personal info including SS#.

Regards,

Greg

A few years ago her first book sold out a run of 800 copies printed “traditionally” but she can’t afford to do that kind of printing this time around. (And I’m not charging her for any of my work.) I haven’t done much print on demand work and what I have done was several years ago so if any of you have any favorite sources to recommend (or ones to avoid) it would save me a lot of research time. I would be very grateful for any advice you are willing to share.
