Creating a book/leaflet/glossy mag
 

Are there any sites on the Internet that will allow you to make a book or something like that? I want to be able to create Brochure /soft cover books and other such stuff. Basically I wondered if there was an online publishing site? (When I say book, I donââ‚Âà ‚¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢t mean like a novel. I mean like Brochure and stuff)

You might be better off visiting a local publisher and asking them to do it for you

Surprised that i cant find any online ones

Re: Creating a book/leaflet/glossy mag
 

hmm true... the only ones i could find were big commercial operations and i didn't think these would be much help...

Why not use a DTP package, even if it's just MS Publisher, and then take your saved masterpiece to a local printing company such as this

its seems like a no brainer. You want a glossy publication so your send off a word document or somthing and they do top quality printing. Even if you just create a coursework file, want it bound and well printed.....

Re: Creating a book/leaflet/glossy mag
 

if you just want some coursework bound, drag your arse off to staples, they will do it for you :)

Nah thats one thing I may do. Its just seeing how far I go :D I am always trying to improve my presentation, this time i think I went a bit too far :dunce: :disturbd:

one possible diy solution I have used is fineprint

with a decent printer/media it can produce good results that just need professionally binding, in my opinion ;)

Thanks. but I use a mac :D

Anyone got any other presentation tips such as that

Re: Creating a book/leaflet/glossy mag
 

Yes, but whatever you do, DON'T use the supplied templates. Makes me cringe whenever I see them being used. ;)

Re: Creating a book/leaflet/glossy mag
 

Not really. Since you use a mac you're on your own :p: :angel:

Re: Creating a book/leaflet/glossy mag
 

There is a company on the web that will publish a singl;e book for you.
You write it, send it to them they then print them off when you get an order for them etc.
They take a percentage, but it wasn't too expensive.

I'll try & find out who it was.

Re: Creating a book/leaflet/glossy mag
 

Found it.

here

No setup charges, no min order etc.

Fire up Azureus, find yourself a nice Quark torrent, and start downloading. ;)

Did I just say that out loud? :erm:
