[NTG-context] Printing ConTeXt books on Lulu? (Was: A new manual)
I figured I would try adjusting the subject to make the query a little more apparent. Would it be possible to purchase some of the books on ConTeXt via Lulu? Geoffrey Alan Washburn wrote: John R.

Speaking of printed manuals, it struck me the other day that an interim solution would be to use Lulu (www.lulu.com) to obtain printed copies of the existing manuals. However, it would probably be best if the folks at PRAGMA ADE were to handle this to avoid some of the copyright issues, and they might as well be the ones receiving any profits from the sales. ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

In short, Lulu.com is a print-on-demand publisher with no costs involved for the author: He or she uploads a 'book', specifies bindings and his/her royalties, and if someone purchases the book, it is printed and send to the person. A percentage o the royalties goes to Lulu. In particular, one can choose to publish a book w/o royalties, then it will only cost the printing expenses. Downloads just cost the royalties, if permitted. Finally, the author can choose among a range of copyright options.

Please have a look at the showcase on the Pragma-site: http://www.pragma-ade.com/showcase.pdf Yes, I've seen the rather impressive array of documentation available there, but I have a bit of a soft spot for being able to reach for a book. However, this is easily solved -- I just wanted to make sure there wasn't something better than printing and binding my own copies of the documentation available electronically.
