Printing your family history book

[artygirl]

Hi everyone,

I'm thinking of printing my family history book soon. It'll just be a first draft so that I can add to the research over the years. For those of you that have printed already, where did you manage to get a small quantity of booklets printed? I'll probably print 30 as we have quite a large family but most printers won't print a 'small' quantity like this! (i'm in the UK)

Thank you!

I print my own on my own computer,  with a reasonable printer set to highest print quality I have found the results to be at least as good as a cheap 'professional' print job.

you can buy comb binding machines to bind,  but I use slide on plastic sleeves.

Hi Arty,

have a look here, you'll find a few tips from others doing this:

Thank you both for your help! I had thought of doing it at home and I think that due to how many large images I have in my book, I'd really love them to be printed to the edge, which I cannot do on a normal printer.

I'll take a look at that forum topic when I get back from work. It looks like an interesting read.

Thank you both again,

Arty
