    Question POD for Hero Games Plus?

    Have to be honest, I do not like ebooks for gaming. I subscript to Digital Hero, but it is a pain to print out. Guess I am a tradistionist, I perfer a printed booked over an electronic format.

    I do realize that with the D20 explosion there is an awful lot of ebooks around now. Ebooks do have a future in gaming, no matter what I think of them.

    Recently, I discovered that RPGNow.com has a very interesting service, called Print On Demand. See here for more information, http://www.rpgnow.com/pod.php?PHPSES...6cff19a1f77d64

    Just wonder if this could be an option for the the Hero Games Plus line?

    It looks like they charge $5.00 to print most books around the size of DH. I have never checked with Kinko or any of the other printing services available. I usually just print mine on both sides on my laser printer. Does anyone know how much a Kinkos or a local printing shop charges to print a 64 page pdf?

    At least $5.00. RPGNow's service is very reasonably priced. You know who else just started PODing, is CafePress.

    roughly .075 per page for a 100 pages....that mean 100 x .075=7.50 plus Tax...thats assuming the file is in PDF (they charge for other formants for some reason)
