About...
the
Boatbuilding
in Pictures
Series
Our Boatbuilding in Pictures CDs are loaded with color photos. Since we knew that full color printing was going to be very expensive, we elected to use the digital format, which allows us to “print” the books in the series inexpensively, and thus keep them within most builder's budgets.
We hear you...We’ve been receiving positive feedback from those who have ordered the CDs, but a small percentage contacted us because they couldn’t print from the disks. Right. They are intended to be viewed on a monitor, and the files on them are compressed and encrypted, so can neither be printed nor copied.
There are pros and cons to everything–but we can appreciate the problem of one gentleman who phoned to tell us that his computer is 20 miles from his shop, and it would really be helpful to have a print version of the disk.
Well now he and anyone with a similar concern can have a printed version. We have printed a very limited number of full color editions of all four CDs. Like all of our books, they have laminated covers, are comb bound, and measure 8-1/2” x 11”.
These
are substantial books, and really are lovely with all of those color photos.
To keep the cover prices as low as possible, these are barely over our
production costs, and are only available through Duck Trap Press. They
are pricey even so, but they are worth every cent, or so folks keep telling
us. And if you want the best of both worlds, there
is a deal for anyone who orders both the book and the matching CD at the
same time.
