Self Published printing- Lesson learned.......I hope!
-
@Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen My son found createPDF software that I could use to convert the files to PDF. Now I just need to figure out how to make one multi-page document, I guess. Maybe I bit off more than I can chew!

@lmrush Hello. I don't know what program you are using for your images. My son found something called PDF creator for free online. We used it to change the files to PDF's pretty easily. I still need to make it into one big file and I don't think the images are the right scale anymore so I need to see if I can resize them somehow. Almost done! I made copies today and spray glued the pages together so I could put a book together and get a feel for how it will look. I kind of wish I would have taken a chance and found someone else to do all this publishing work
Oh well. It will keep my brain active

@Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen To make one document of several:
-
You can make multi page PDF documents out of images with a free program called XNView and XNView MP as well. I use XNView MP.

Oh! I have xnview on my computer. Thanks!

@Camomilla Jeg liker du og iskrem
I just sent my PDF's loose tothe printer and am hoping he'll still take them. With GIMP and all these other plug ins and programs, etc. I just couldn't figure it all out. I should probably invest in photoshop but I contacted the GIMP people, just in case. We'll see if they can help a poor computer struggler like me. So much to learn..........I may have bitten off more than I can chew with the whole self publishing but now I am committed Have a nice day!Marsha Ottum Owen

@Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen Veldig bra
Except you have to use "deg" in stead of "du" in the sentence. So the sentence would be "Jeg liker deg og iskrem" Takk, jeg liker deg også -
Oh, those degs and dus are confusing! Along with det den and de.....:-) I need to look atg my grammar book a bit one of these days
Have a wonderful day! I'm heading off to Arkansas Marsha Ottum Owen

@Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen Yes, I suppose they are, but don't worry, you got the message across regardless
Enjoy your trip -
@Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen Thank you so much!
-
@lmrush You're more than welcome and...guess what? I finally go tit right and it's at the printers
I got a one copy to look at today, needed to fix a couple of things so they will do one more and then it will be printed! I'm kind of tired of looking at it myself but, hopefully 300 other people will like it Marsha Ottum Owen
-
@Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen I am going through the same learning pains at the moment. At least we will know how to do it when we are done
-
@Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen Congratulations!!!! Good for you! Don't forget to share
-
I want to see too
-
I don't really know how to share it because the files are too big....I guess. I tried to load just the front and back covers but it didn't work. I like the back cover better than the front .....I'll see if I can share one page.
I can't. Sorry.
