I have 2 friends who had works published through Blurb. One has had a couple of books printed. They contained only colour images & turned out fine.
The other had a collection of his fine are nudes printed into a bok to go along with an exhibition he held. The first sample book turned out perfectly. The bulk run to fill orders he had taken during his exhibition has been nothing but problems. 2 runs with exactly the same problem <http://forums.blurb.com/forums/5/topics/3292#posts-15411> Cheers, Dave 2008/10/1 Paul Sorenson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Ann - > > I've not used any B/W images, so I don't know how they would reproduce if > not tagged.
