How should I choose?
  • Consider your budget. The minimum is 50 copies. Play with the number until such a point the total falls just under your budget.
  • Consider also that there are fixed costs every time books are printed. In this context, it may be more efficient to do a big order rather than many small orders.
  • If your book sells fast, it might be best to do a big order. If your book has a slow turnover, consider small-sized orders so your money doesn't get tied up in invetory.

For Classic Printing, the book will be printed in black & white, and colored pages will be inserted as needed.

Amazon On Demand printing will print a book entirely in color if there is even only one page in color.
