What's in it
It is for you if you are about to upload your book and want to know which printer to use first.
- What each one costs to set up, and what a 200-page paperback costs to print.
- How you are paid, with a worked example for a $14.99 book.
- Where each one sells your book, and what it offers for hardcovers and colour.
- Proof copies, and when the money reaches you.
- Five lines that start "pick this one if", and what I use myself.
