Is anyone using on-line book publishing for their work? I have done some through Mac but am looking for a better quality publisher. I specifically want text as well as images. If there are any in Canada, that is even better.
Thanks in advance.

I haven't seen a book done through the Mac path, but I have one book done through Blurb that I think it really good. It's done using Blurb's option for premium matte paper. Might be worth taking a look at : http://www.blurb.com/create/book/pricing

I have used MyPublisher and the book turned out great! :toast:

I recently used Blurb as well. Depending on what options you want I found that Blurb had more options than MyPublisher(things like custom page numbers) but if you aren't doing anything too complicated either Blurb or MyPublisher should be good.

Here's a preview of my Blurb book(about Namibia) if you're curious as to the options available. http://www.blurb.com/books/1773060

I also used Blurb (Peru). Iwas very happy with the finished product. I found I needed to lighten most of my images a tad so they would appear properly using their printing process.
