Custom book publishing
From lamplight to daylight
During 2018/19 Ventura Press produced and published a book for me on behalf of my client, a mid-tier Australian mining company. This book was a fully referenced 300 page corporate history of about 85,000 words incorporating some 120 figures and photographs. It was a hardback book, produced in colour with a print run of 2000.
Ventura were responsible for editorial management including copyediting, proofreading and indexing; design and layout including formatting and typesetting; production, freight and full project management.
“Overall Ventura’s performance was excellent, with a high quality book produced on schedule and within budget. They were very good to communicate with, giving quick responses to questions and we developed an excellent common understanding regarding the overall concept for the book. Impact Press were proactive during the whole process, producing a range of ideas and constructs for consideration. The employees involved in all phases of the publication were professional and highly capable. I would definitely use Ventura Press again for further publications.”
