Hi Everyone,

I have been considering doing a 40 to 50 page pictorial/text lay-out and have it printed and made into a book. I have been told that there are companies that will put together a single copy for $40.00 or so. Then after, let's say 10 tp 20 copies the cost goes down.

Can anyone direct me to one of these Online book printers?

Thanks,

Gary

Everyone I know who self-publishes uses www.lulu.com, and they've all been pretty happy with the service, as far as I know.

lulu is nice, but for a much higher quality of printing, try Blurb! You have to use their own software for layout (Booksmart), but the results are amazing and easy to do.

Hey Miles... Blurb looks very similar to MyPublisher.. but one thing i would like to know..

MyPublisher only allows book layout to be in Landscape orientation, does blurb have the option to open in portrait orientation? (on the website, when you look at portfolio books, the are all shown in landscape)

Do you know?
