Help! I need to make a hardbound "coffee table" book.

Hello. For work, I created an indesign document showcasing our firm's most notable projects which was submitted for an annual architecture award. We were required to submit the award as a PDF however now the management team would like to turn this document into a hardcover book to use as a company marketing piece. The local company we use for all of our printing does not offer this service and does not have any reccomendations. Can someone please advise on how or where to do this?
The document, when complete should be about 100 sheets (or about 200 pages printed front and back). We would want this to look very professional, similar to something you would buy at bookstore. Hardcover with nice glossy image and ideally a nice dust jacket. We would probably only want a few copies.
Please let me know if you have any reccomendations.
Thanks so much!!

I actually just came across Lulu when i was searching online. The only problem is that I am restricted by the typical sizes they offer. I guess I should have mentioned this in the previous post but the pages were designed to 16"w x 7"h. Definitely not standard.
That's gong to be really hard to get done in small quantities. I've never seen a casebound book that wasn't built from folded and stitched signatures (though it might be possible). Presuming it is not, you need a sheet of paper large enough to hold two 16" wide pages, or mor than 32" wide, and I'm not sure there are any digital presses that can handle stock that big, or if there are that they'd run at a price you could afford. Offset would be prohiibitively expensive, too, for anything under hundreds, or maybe thousands of units.
The good news is there are binderies or craftsmen bookbinders out there who can probably handle assembling one or two volumes if you can get them printed, but I'd expect to pay $75 -$100 per book for the binding alone.

  • Help: I need to make air.worker to work in my HTML only adobe air

    I need to make air.worker to work in my HTML only adobe air. I see airAliases.js has those definition.
    There is no guide or tutorial in how to use them. Can someone direct me example of how to use them?
    Also worker do not work in Adobe air.
    /*  Main thread
    var worker =  air.Worker('assets/js/test.js');
    // Setup an event listener that will handle messages received from the worker.
    worker.addEventListener('message', function(e) {
      // Log the workers message.
      alert(e.data);
      console.log(e.data);
    }, false);
    worker.postMessage('Hello World');
    /* File: test.js
    // Setup an event listener that will handle messages sent to the worker.
    self.addEventListener('message', function(e) {
      // Send the message back.
      self.postMessage('You said1: ' + e.data);
    }, false);
    above code work in ff browser but do not work in adobe air preview mode. It say worker not defined. Is it same as air.worker?

    I have no experiance with workers in AIR, but I think you are assuming that things work like HTML5 web workers, which they do not.  Check out the ActionScript3 dpcs to see how they work:
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/system/Worker.htm l
    Not sure how you can bridge the webkit environment with AS3 workers.  Seems to be unchartered territory.

    hey guys,
    I have a menu bar slider that was created in flash 5 - but of

    correctly.
    its probably very quick fix, but im a bit lost here, tried
    everything.
    anyone able to quickly skim over my code and tell me whats
    wrong? and how to update it to flash 8?

    really have to figure this out ASAP -
    best,

    well this is a mess, and I don't have the time like I thought
    I would, sorry.. Here are the basics though that should get you
    through it. You'll have to change some variable names, because
    there are some names that are reserved, like, new.
    /:variableName should be _root.variableName, ../variableName
    should _parent.variableName, movieClip:property should be
    movieClip.property and so on

    That's going to be a ridiculous waste of money and energy.
    First of all, the current ATI drivers don't support multiple GPUs, so at the moment even a single 4870X2 would be only a 'normal' 4870 (which is quite a speed beast already). GFX drivers evolve rapidly, so things might look different next month, but when it comes to Linux and hardware there's one Golden Rule: stay away from the newest stuff and wait for proper support to get coded.
    I also wonder what power supply could possibly cope with the differences between idle and full load; that's way beyond 400W. But then, I'm one of those "quiet&green" types where >100W idle is already a bit much.
    I kind of understand that you want to get it done and not worry about hardware for the next 10 years or so, but that's simply not how the hardware world works and never did. At least not for the average consumer.

  • I need help with using the Make With Top Object envelope distortion.

    I'm doing a project for school called "Ocean Of Stars". I  have a few  objects,a sheet of purple stars and a few  blue gradient colored circles. I need to merge the stars and the circles as one object, but when I click the Make with top object command, the color in the cicles disappear. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
    this is what my screen looks like now.
    And this is what I need to make.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks!

    His spheres are 3d yours are 2d. See what happens when you revolve a 1/2 a sphere. You will find a way to apply the stars in that same dialog box if you look really hard.

  • Difficulty using a projector. I have a MBP 17" and am running 10.6.8. Often I need to make a Powerpoint or other presentation  at a client and I want to connect my computer to their projector. Either it won't display on the projector at all. HELP!

    Difficulty using a projector. I have a MBP 17" and am running 10.6.8. Often I need to make a Powerpoint or other presentation  at a client and I want to connect my computer to their projector. Either it won't display on the projector at all. Once it displayed but the presentation mode was on the big screen and the presentation I wanted to show was on my MBP screen. I have the adapter( white ones) to attached to the projector cables.  I am so frsutrated...it looks so silly not to have a computer work during a presentation..
    Another problem one the rare occasion that it shows on the screen is that the presentation does show just my desk top.  Any ideas?
    Thanks !

    You often have to turn off Mirroring to be able to set the second "screen"s resolution to something reasonable. When you do, the two screens become an "Exceeded Desktop" joined along one edge, and the Arrange pane in displays prefs can allow you to specify what edge. Initially, it will show a vacant extension of the built-in screen's desktop.
    The mouse moves freely across that shared edge, and can allow you to drag the presentation window across to the the projector screen and re-size it to fit.

  • My main (back of phone) camera doesn't work on my brand new iPhone 5. Verizon cannot help, do I need to make an appt with apple?

    Do I need to make an apple appt or is there a way to fix it myself? No restrictions or obstructions apply on the phone

    Since this is a hardware issue you will need to take your phone into your nearest apple store,since it's your camera that's not working they will most likely just give you a new phone . Here is a link  to my an appointment via Genius Bar

  • What do I need to do when I receive the message ". . . your startup disc is full, you need to make some room by deleting some files"

    I hope I'm in the right place since I was sort of redirected here Recently I have been receiving the message that my startup disc is full and that I need to make room by deleting files.  At first I received the message when I left my computer unattended with my virtual machine on, using VMWare Fusion to run Windows.  Recently though, I got the message when I left my computer unattended for about 6 hours without the virtual machine running.  As an aside, I get extremely nervous when anything freezes VMWare because it is usually a nightmare to get back into Windows if I can at all without calling Tech Support. This new message however, appeared without the virtual machine active, so I was relieved that VMWare most likely was not the cause.  After reading a number of Tech Support articles and Community discussion questions and answers, I started wondering if iTunes or the SMC firmware or a combination thereof may be causing the problems.  Mind you I know nothing about the SMC stuff because as I said, I am really new to Mac and know very little about computer code or processors or any of that stuff.  But I do know that iTunes has recently been giving me some trouble, such as opening on start up and I can't figure out why and messing around with my iTunes libraries.  I also read about the SMC firmware and the computer's sleep cycle so that sort of made sense.  But I seriously need advice from someone a lot smarter than me.  So, before you ask, both iTunes and my SMC firmware are up to date. I'm running a mid-2007 iMac Intel Core 2 Duo Processor with 2.4 GHz of speed.
    You may not need all this junk, but in case you do, since the message tells me to make room and delete files, here goes.  Now, if I need to make space and delete files, this is where I get confused and it's probably very simple but I'm still a relatively new Mac user and I still can't seem to find all the info about my Mac!  I'm not exactly sure how much space I have left on my hard drive.  I had to replace my hard drive last December and the invoice says it is a 500 GB 7200 SATA hard drive.  For some reason I thought I had more than that.  Regardless, System Profiler shows 10.26 GB currently available, 499.76 used; I assume that the used portion includes my partitioned drive that has my virtual machine on it?  I may be using the wrong language when calling it that but that's how I understand it as a "partitioned drive".  Now, when looking at the System Profiler, under Volumes, Capacity 209 MB writable diskOs1 - I think this my Virtual Machine.  I also have three Western Digital drives that I use for Time Machine and for pictures and music; however, as I said, I am still new with Macs and do not fully understand the file structure so there may be pictures on my Mac hard drive that are duplicated on 1 or more of my WD drives but I don't know how to find them or if I do, I'm afraid to delete them.  Of these WD external drives, 1 is 500 GB and is full with Time Machine backups; the 2nd WD drive is 3 TB and has 2.18 TB available and is currently being used for Time Machine backups; the final WD drive is 1 TB Firewire and currently has 694.33 GB available.
    Any help would be appreciated.  Please forgive any inaccurate terms or mis-statements of terminology as I do not really know what I'm talking about as far as the pieces and parts of the operating system; I'm just trying my best to describe what I see.
    One more piece of advice that I would appreciate would be recommendations about a good file cleaner, for duplicates, messy file structure, space utilization software; it also needs to be idiot proof software.  I have a trial version of Appdelete that I never really used and I have the purchased version of Tune Up My Mac that I haven't spent much time with because I'm afraid I'll delete something I shouldn't
    Thank you for your help

    Hi Memalyn
    Essentially, the bare issue is that you have a 500GB hard drive with only 10GB free. That is not sufficient to run the system properly. The two options you have are to move/remove files to another location, or to install a larger hard drive (eg 2TB). Drive space has nothing to do with SMC firmware, and usually large media files are to blame.
    My first recommendation is this: download and run the free OmniDiskSweeper. This will identify the exact size of all your folders - you can drill down into the subfolders and figure out where your largest culprits are. For example, you might find that your Pictures folder contains both an iPhoto Library and copies that you've brought in from a camera but are outside the iPhoto Library structure. Or perhaps you have a lot of purchased video content in iTunes.
    If you find files that you KNOW you do not need, you can delete them. Don't delete them just because you have a backup, since if the backup fails, you will lose all your copies.
    Don't worry about "cleaners" for now - they don't save much space and can actually cause problems. Deal with the large file situation first and see how you get on.
    Let us know what you find out, and if you manage to get your space back.

  • I need to make a pdf document, made in photoshop, 'page turn' and then add it to my website. I know I can do this in indesign but indesign will not open pdf files for some inexplicable reason. Any ideas how I can do it without completely starting again?

    I need to make a pdf document, already made in photoshop, 'page turn' and then add it to my website as an e-brochure. I know I can do this in indesign but indesign will not open pdf files for some inexplicable reason. Any ideas how I can do it without completely starting again?

    Hello waitingone,
    please try this (all terms are translated from my German programs to my best knowledge):
    1. Did the creator of the pdf file enable the import options?
    2. See import options: choose an other visibility option for your layer.
    3. Let you show the import options and click into one with a black background and try these out (often a gray is selected).
    4. See trimming: try the different modes there. Often works: "Media".
    5. Is the pdf file (eg from Word) correctly created?
    6. Is the PDF file protected? >>> no import possible.
    7. If that does not help, store the pdf file in Acrobat, repair possible errors, run the PDF Optimizer before placing in InDesign.
    Good luck!
    Hans-Günter
