Perfect Prints Every Time: How to achieve excellent photographic prints
Save Time, Money and FrustrationIt was a sad email that brought this book about. I wish it was unique, but it wasn’t; I receive emails just like this, all too frequently.
The gentleman in question was delighted when he was asked to show his photography. He tried hard to print his photos for the exhibition, but eventually gave up in frustration. As well as the expense of a new printer, the paper and the ink, he was running short of time. He decided his best option was to send the photos to a printing service. What came back shocked him; the photos were worse than his own attempts and that’s when he contacted me for help. We did solve his problem, quite easily as it happens, and I decided I had to write this book.

Imperfect editing
This is a good basic book on correctly setting up your hardware and software for obtaining quality prints of your images. However, I found it difficult to concentrate on the dialogue because of the poor editing. There were misspellings, missing words and punctuation, poor sentence structure and misuse of words. Bad grammar truly upsets me.
