In January, we (that's yours truly, my hubby and rayethier) are off to Tasmania â a VERY photogenic place!

I donât normally print anything much, but I feel inspired to make an effort this time to create a coffee-table photobook of our trip, plus Iâd like an e-book version, too.
I plan to use my Lumapix Fotofusion software to create 12âx12â (30x30cm) collages, then assemble those into the books. I only have the âEnhancedâ version, which means NO multiple page support.

What is a good printing place in Australia for the paper books? Do I need to make the collages slightly smaller than the paper size so I donât have bits chopped off in the process?

What is a good website/program to create an e-book? You know, something that prettily flips through pages on iPads, etc. I donât mind paying a moderate fee for it, as long as it looks good in the end.

Thanks for any wisdom you can share.

I am no help to you, but I am glad you posted the question. I am planning to put together a book for a Christmas gift this weekend. A couple years ago I went to mixbook.com and put together a book as a gift and had it shipped directly to the recipient. They loved it and raved about the quality, but I never saw the finished product. I am eager to hear what folks here recommend.

I think I have found the place for the physical book. They have great specials at present, I'll buy some vouchers. Their software seems pretty decent, too - should make it easy to put together a book.

Sounds like I can also show off my book via Facebook or email, so that's a start, but probably not what I'd REALLY like to have.

Any ideas about e-books, anyone? Please???
