Many families have their older photos, letters, birth certificates and other treasured artifacts scanned/digitized to preserve them for posterity. The question arises: how to share the photos/artifacts with other family members? Why not print them in a book?
Print on Demand
Digital printing presses have made it possible to produce books one-at-a-time or in small quantities rather than needing to commit to larger, more costly, minimum quantity runs (e.g., 500 copies) on traditional offset presses. Printing a book filled with family photos/artifacts is a great way to share without the need to print each image separately for each recipient.
Paper Stock Options
For high-quality reproduction of photographs, it’s best to select a coated paper stock with a matte finish for interior pages. Coated paper stock for interior pages is more expensive, but the overall cost for each book will remain affordable for most budgets.
Binding Options
Print-on-demand books are typically perfect bound with either soft or hard covers. Hardcover books are, per unit, more costly to produce but provide added durability and longevity. However, softcover books will also provide years of protection for each printed book.
