Just printed out the PTU 1.05 book and I am going to try my hand at book binding! I have learned a lot about it but never got around to doing it so this will be my first book I hope it's good! ~{ Progress update April 13th, 2016 }~ I finished the book! You can see the whole thing over at my imgur album. ![]() ![]() ~{ Progress update March 30th, 2016 }~ Here is the current state of the book. Spoiler: click to toggle And here is a failed test of the cover embossing I am planning I need to cut a negative of the emboss and press it using that while gluing the cover so that the glue can bind to the pleather. Spoiler: click to toggle I also need to coat it with some kind of sealer because the stuff I am using for the fake guilding comes off onto your fingers even multiple days later seems like it never will not from my tests. I may go with just a layer of glue but that's why I am testing it on the pleather first to see how it goes. Edited by Eforen, Apr 13 2016, 07:20 PM.

Heh, you might have wanted to hold off on that. The Devs are currently working on 1.06. Either way though, good luck! |

I figured as much and that is part of why I only printed it in black and white. How ever that it will just give me more practice book binding I plan to make a second one anyway when I finish this one and learn from my mistakes.

The amount of INK.. ( I mean I work at an office supply store and I am thinking that didn't come 'cheap. Lets see even if ts just the core book:508, pages, double sided, its nearly over 1000 pages, (but I don't know what kind of bulk discount the print shop would give you., without the discount we're looking at 600.00s.. which is insane. And I know its gotta be slightly cheeper than a PCs or.. for that price a console. |

That's way over the price it would be to print even in full color just doing 8.5x11 pages All prices following will be off FedExs we printing service I decided to print them 2 to a page to make my signatures this allows me to print 4 pages of the pdf to 1 2 sided peice of paper. I printed it black and white to lower the cost but it would be about $10 In color it would be about $62 Even if I just printed it with one page on eather side that would be about 236 pages which would be $115ish Basically my point is this is actually very affordable. |
