How to make
camera-ready pagesRead ABOUT COOKBOOKS
A hard cover book gives you credibility as an author...
Wouldn't you be impressed receiving a hard cover book from an author or a relative? Or receiving a family history, (genealogy), poetry, juvenile book, fiction, recipes, etc.
You’ll impress family, friends, reviewers, talk show hosts, librarians, bookstore owners, and general audiences!
People rarely throw away hard covered books! Most libraries require them. Reviewers notice them! (Will some relative find yours some day?)
If you need to market your book, don't waste money on book marketing scams.
There is nothing you can't do for yourself, easily, at little or no cost, such as appear on talk shows, get into popular mail-order catalogs, get reviewed in relevant magazines. You'll need to get a domain name, (uder $15.00 a year) and a free or low cost web site, such as www.godaddy.com or www.Directnic.com, Advertise on the internet, on eBay, Yahoo, Google, and Amazon, sell to schools and libraries through book distributors, arrange book signings, etc.
We'll tell our authors where to buy the book that has the best marketing information for their book after publication.

4. Use fancier grades of white paper.
(Do not use color paper). Please use white only. We only use white end papers.Here's How Easy It Gets...

their pages in the correct size ready for us to bind.

card (safely online only).
Do not request laminated covers or dust jackets
on 8 ½" x 11" We cannot accommodate you.
You need to find a "printer," who prints oversized
paper dust jackets, after your book is bound.
We suggest "Kinko's"
If you need lots of pictures or color graphics,
or less than 100 books, with more than 64 pages...

Here's How Else We Can Help You
We can provide the ISBN number you need, and list your book
in "Books In Print," so it can be located worldwide by everyone,
major book sellers, academic or public libraries, etc.
If your book will be sold in bookstores, you must have an ISBN number.
You cannot get a bar code for your book until it has an ISBN number.
These are actual photos of
Our Gold Embossed
Vinyl-Cloth Hard Covered Books
Please don't request samples.
This is the world-wide-web. It is not feasible to cater to
that many requests.
We cannot sell you someone's book. Most of our books'
pages were provided by the author and are not
representative of our work.
We "guarantee" that all our books are
Smyth-Sewn, and library approved quality.
You will be proud and pleased.
3.) Choose Classic Gold-titled vinyl-cloth
hard covered books shown here.
(a semi-gloss water-resistant finish).
Or choose the NEW
Laminated hard cover
"dust-jacket-look"
To use this style your book size must be
8½"x 5½" or 8½"x 7".
A similar technique is used for decades on children's
books: (Golden Books, Dr. Zeus, etc.) Now it is turning
up in gift-type books in bookstores.
This style eliminates a need for dust jackets
that can fall off and get ruined,
and that are very expensive in small quantity.
Here full-color art is printed on plain white paper,
then laminated in sparkling acrylic coating, then
mounted onto hard covers, (instead of using cloth or vinyl).
You need to supply us with your own
printed, ready-to-bind, pages.
We can use our art or yours or send you margin requirements
and you can print your cover on 11x17"
24 lb white paper which we can laminate and wrap
around our board to create the same covers.
Your picture needs to meet our approval first.
You need a large per cent of white area.
Click to enlarge our examples
of some of our laminated covers.
Too large an area of solid print
can cause bubbles in the lamination.
FREE We provide Full-color professional art for
Laminated hard covers provided by our art dept.
(A glossy Dust-jacket-look).
We will consider your cover design only if the picture
is within 3"x5" with no dark, or dense color areas,
suitable for our reproduction.)
