I'm thinking that'll be a good solution for the family cookbook I'm working on. Can you include photos in the text? Line drawings?

Maybe I should just go to the website and find out, huh? :P

As long as the photos and drawings are embedded in the word document you upload, they can go in. It's a bit pricier for color printing, though, so there's that to consider.

And they'll do either perfect binding (the regular paperback style) or the kinda binding they usually have on cookbooks...that plastic thingie. Dunno the right term for it.

The downside is that it's pretty much straight WYSIWYG - so any mistakes you make in formatting (and I'm sure there will be a few in mine) come through in the final output. I don't think they even look at it.

I'm now remembering all the stuff I didn't do. Like adding a page with the table of contents. And a blank page between the cover and the dedication and the dedication and the actual text would have probably looked better. *sigh*

But it's a first edition! It's collectible BECAUSE it's flawed, right? Heh...
