I have made a number of books using the LRC Book Module. It has been great for my travel books using my regular camera photos and minimum text. But it hasn't been updated for a while, as best I can tell.
I am about to undertake a new project of producing a much larger book, an intro, and Table of contents, Chapters, and with photos from different sources. The sources will include scanned old prints, slides, stills from Super 8 movies, and regular camera shots. Maybe 150 - 200 pages.
I started a simple design using the Book Module, but quickly ran into limitations with multiple photo sizes and varying text.
I have downloaded the latest Blurb's BookWright onto my pc. A quick look at it says that it is a lot more flexible than Book. It will also accept jpegs that are dragged and dropped.
It will probably turn out to be more work, but increased flexibility usually brings more work.
I can see myself producing a file folder of sized jpegs (per chapter) exported from LRC, then dropping them onto a page.
My question - has anyone here used both LRC's Book and Blurb's BookWright ?
Did you like BookWright ?
Have you run into issues with BookWright ?
Do you have any recommendations based on your experience?
Thanks in Advance
