Book Publishing - Long run (500+ copies) - Focus Publishing is your best option for printing fine books, catalogs and other journals of fine photography. Focus Publishing has special contracts setup with printers, paper companies and binderies that save you tens of thousands of dollars on printing. For instance - we recently compared a project from Meridian Printing and compared it to what we would charge. The price is for just printing, folding and binding. Prices for a press proof and any scanning or design services are extra. The book is 1,000 copies, 96 pages, 9 5/8 x 8 5/8 (oblong), using 115# Galerie Art Silk text, using 90 supplied digital files and two rounds of proofs. Our price came to $19,231 while Meridian's came to $32,245. It's the same book size, using the same paper. With Focus Publishing though, you get 400 linescreen instead of 300, giving your images even more detail than Meridian can offer you. Our price was almost $13,000 less expensive.

Book Publishing - Short run (print on demand) Want to print 50 books? How about 100? Don't have the budget to print 500 or 1,000 books? No problem! Focus Publishing has teamed with local printers and binderies to utilize the hp Indigo technology that can deliver extremely high quality printing on the same paper we would use for a longer run book. Not only that, but we can offer you as many shapes and sizes of your book as you can imagine - anywhere from a small 6 x 6 square book, a standard 8 x 10 size to a extra large 12 x 18 landscape book! Not only that, but our print quality can beat all other PoD companies. Blurb and Lulu consistently have produced poor quality books as you can see in several internet forums located here and here.
