I’ve been investigating MagCloud – the website for producing
print-on-demand magazines. It’s a project started by HP Labs and is
currently still in beta, but looks quite interesting as the magazine production
uses the HP Indigo printer, the same kit used to produce my Blurb books which I’m
very pleased with in terms of print quality.
I’m not thinking of going into
magazine production, but I think there could be a few things I could do with
the format. It may provide a more cost-effective way of producing my Artist’s Catalogue
perhaps. In particular, I noticed that a few people have been using the
format to produce calendars, so I thought I’d give it a try, and I’ve
put together a Yorkshire Through The Seasons
2010 Calendar as a start. From what I’ve read so far the
print quality is good, but I’m waiting for the proof to arrive to see
just how good it is before making the calendar available. I’ll
write another post when it arrives!
