Coincidentally as we are discussing books on demand there's a 4 page article
in the current 'Computeractive' issue 354, 15th to 28th September 2011.
It explains very clearly how to do it using 'Lulu', but they do give links
to 4 other on demand publishers. They also give examples of cost (although
it isn't clear if the example is text only) from Lulu - £6.00 for a single
copy of a 200 page paperback, £14.40 hardback or £15.60 hardback with
dustjacket. A 12-page newspaper from 'Newpaper Club' would be £14.00 for a
single copy or £169 for 100 copies (£1.69 each). With 'Lulu' (and probably
others as well) a book can be revised and a 2nd edition published, and
there's a choice of binding - perfect bound, saddle stitched, coil bound,
dust jacketed, case wrapped, mass market paperback or trade paperback.
Worth buying 'Computeractive' for this article if you think you might want
to publish even one copy of something for yourself.
