Make your own book. Make it great.
Developed with the design-savvy professional in mind, Blurb's
on-demand printing service makes designing and publishing
professional-quality books easy and cost-effective! Prices start at
just $12.95 and Blurb's bookstore and online marketing tools even
make it possible to market and sell your books—and keep 100 percent
of the profit.
Whether you're a design student making a portfolio book
or a professional designer making a book to showcase your work to
clients, you can create and publish just
one book—or ten—all in about a week's time! AIGA members can count
on Blurb's bookstore-quality printing and binding, and a range of
choices from hardcover photo books to softcover paperbacks in an
array of trim sizes. And, you can update your Blurb book as often
as you wish and just order books when you need them.
On-demand printing equals flexibility
Print on demand (POD) means no waste, no warehousing. And if you’re thinking tens of books or even hundreds of books,
Blurb can do digital and offset printing too. Blurb offers a hybrid
model (POD and offset) that allows designers to select the model that
works best for each project.
Your book your way.
Blurb’s PDF to Book gives professional users full creative reign over the bookmaking process. Blurb offers blank Adobe® InDesign® templates tailored
for use with all of Blurb’s book sizes, papers, and cover types. Or use
their detailed specifications to create PDFs using your favorite layout
tool. Once your page and cover PDFs are ready, simply upload and order
your book.
