Book Production

Color Books uses Print on Demand Technology to produce your book!

After your initial sign up with Color Books you need to submit your documents to us. We accept a print-ready layouted manuscript, preferably as a PDF file. Other options are possible.

After submitting, your entire book will be stored in a digital library, ready to print.

If a customer orders your title, your book will be printed within a few days and mailed to the respective address.
Customers can order one or several books, depending on their needs.
Authors (you) can order books for themselves, relatives and friends, as many as needed and enjoy a discounted rate.

The whole book printing process is fully automated and does not require any third party involvement.


Royalty Fees:

Authors receive a royalty payment each 3 months together with all accounting details and prior sales activities. The mode of payment is either Bank to Bank transfer (US customers only) or check payment (international customers).
The payout amount largely depends on the retail price of the book. In general authors receive 50% of our net receipts.


The Advantages of using Print on Demand

- authors never go out of print
- authors will receive an ISBN (if they don´t have one yet)
- books are being printed and mailed to any place in the world quickly
- we guarantee that you can use unlimited graphics and color inserts (a service which is new and extraordinary in today's print on demand environment)


Print a small number of color books and enjoy big savings!

Many of our customers use our sevices to print a small number of color books for their own usage. This happens when an author runs out of stock but needs a few hundred copies, for example for a trade fair; for relatives or friends.

What to do?
Everyone knows that printing a small quantity of color books is very expensive.


We have the perfect solution!

With our print on demand technology you can print any amount of books for yourself for a reasonable price.
On top of that, authors enjoy a discount if they do order books for themselves.
