Theytake up less physical space than the traditional photo album and produce far lessclutter than traditional paper scrapbooking.  Have you ever wondered which childwill inherit that ONE copy of your prized family vacation scrapbook? Do youprint multiple copies of your pictures to share with parents, grandparents orsiblings? Are you struggling with how to keep all those digital photosorganized? Are you looking for a fun family history project? Professionally printed photo booksare the perfect combination of printing digital photos and documenting familymemories. They’re easy to share and make great gifts – just print more than onecopy. Plus, personal publishing companies often make organizing your onlinephotos a breeze. Ready to jump on that learningcurve? Understanding the Basics Standard digital photo books are usually...about 20 pages with the capacity to include 100-150 pageshard or soft coversometime come with a dust cover, or the option of purchasing a dust cover for an additional feevary in size – anything from 5x5 to 7x10 to 8x8 to 10.5x11 to 12x12 Every company I’ve worked withrequires you to first create a free password-protected user account. Fromthere, some companies ask you to download bookmaking software while othersoperate entirely online.  Photo Book Variables Photo book options vary just asmuch as the companies that produce them. There are many features available, butno one company offers them all. Therefore, it’s best to decide what YOUconsider to be the most important photo book elements before you begin yourproject. For example: if you want to spend the least amount of money possible,you will most likely be sacrificing quality and working assembling your bookwith somewhat confusing software. To get the best quality and most customersupport, you will most likely need to spend more money. Variables include:book qualityprices (base price quotes are usually just forthe standard 20-pages; after that you pay per page)customer servicelayout optionsthe amount of text you can put on a pageability to alter and edit photosindividual page layout optionsvariety of backgrounds, templates and themesusability of photo book software; the time and work it takes to learn the program nuancesprocess of uploading photos, storage and sharing optionsthe ability to make other custom projects from digital images, such as a calendar, greeting cards, t-shirt, etc.  Howto Choose a Personal Publishing Company To find the company that willbest suit your needs, consider the following: Digital photo books vary, just like the companies who publish them. How much help will you need? Browse through the “about us” and customer service portions of the website to get a feel for how available they are to answer individual questions. Are there webinars or tutorials to get you started? What size do you want for your personalized photo book? Different companies offer different options. If you want to create a photo book based on your 12x12 scrapbook pages, it’ll be easiest to print a 12x12 book. What is your skill level? How easy does your project need to be? If you don’t want to spend a lot of time customizing pages, look for attractive templates and themed books. If the available backgrounds and designs seem limiting, make sure the company offers editing options and photo placement flexibility. How much text are you planning to include? Some companies/templates offer little more word space than the ability to print photo captions. Make sure there is enough space to say what you want to say. How many photos do you plan to include? Watch that “additional page” charge – it can add up quickly. Is the cover important? Do you want to be able to print your book title on the spine? Do you need a dust jacket? Again, options vary considerably. What do you plan to do with your book? Who will read it? If you’ll be handing your digital photo books over to young children, make sure the book and pages are of a higher quality so they will resist wrinkles and tears.   One thing is certain - a picture is worth a thousand words…but only if you look at them! Digital photo books are the perfect solution.
