    All the commodity online digital printing companies such as lulu and blurb turn out a product that's mediocre at best. For a studio promo piece, I'd say either do it up right or not at all. I actually think $20 per 68 page book at that quantity is a pretty good price.

    For a perfect bound book, you just can't get cheaper than this. It's the setup cost that's killing you at your current quantity.

    Out of curiosity, are you looking at an Indigo, Nexpress or some sort of Xerox printer? Because I have a digital printer here in town, they use Indigos, and do great work but aren't the cheapest around. Indigo is really the best call, especially if you're printing on uncoated.

    • how many books have you seen printed by either? I only ask I have 120 pages of reference from blurbversion3
    • color is vibrant. paper is thick. printing is sharp. what are you opinions of your book?version3
    • Anything we've had done on an Indigo turned out really well.blaw
