Got my first prototype today and the verdict is... Wow!
I was expecting to be really disappointed in the reproduction quality. Maybe it's because I didn't get my hopes up but I'm *really* impressed with the results. Front and back cover (full glossy) both look spectacular. The semi-matte interior pages look excellent. I've been trying to find nits to pick but just can't come up with any as far as the quality of the end product is concerned. The price is a bit steep, but that's not too surprising for small-batch (one!) custom print jobs like this. I'm going to revise the book, adding more pages: I kept it small to start with because I didn't want to invest much time into a project that I was sure would disappoint me. I've never been happier to be wrong! I wouldn't recommend trying this service unless you have a high quality (not TN) monitor that's properly calibrated and profiled (I'm very glad I recently upgraded my monitor), but if your equipment is up to snuff at your end, they certainly seem to have a handle on their profiles and equipment calibration at their end! -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
