In fact I've been laying out the actual book this very week using their software ~ which I have to say, I'm loving the simplicity and ease of use ~ even though I use InDesign frequently ~ it's such a nice treat to have already created, classic, sophisticated layouts to choose from, that you can just piece together.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30414727.post-91150974372304728102008-06-09T15:41:00.000-07:002008-06-09T15:41:00.000-07:00For those of you looking to make your own books, I...For those of you looking to make your own books, I've used both Blurb and Lulu (lulu.com) and have had better luck quality wise from Lulu. They also don't require their logo, are less expensive, and have more size options, as well as let you completely customize the book and upload as a pdf. Just thought I'd throw that out as another option<BR/>(and I'm no way affilitated with any publishing company out there.
