Exactly. I am simply ignorant of who Pip Printing is.
Troll Lord Games is taking advantage of the
fundamental changes in the print industry and we are
submitting our products to our printer in digital
format.
My point was, and still remains, even with the strides
in the printing industry, you would not be able to buy
the PHB on Thursday morning at Gen Con and then run to
the printers and have a quality, professional
publication for sale on the table by that afternoon or
the next day as Ryan suggested.
