We had two choices: Here's what one of customers has to say about the issue of print versus online publishing:
Here's a comment from the author:
One of my main concerns is color accuracy. Since the books were created in a computer and are viewed in a computer, the same colors system translates the color. This is the RGB (red, green,blue) system and includes a very large gamut of 30,000,000 colors. In other words, all the illustrations use RGB and your computer and monitor uses the same RGB system. Printed publications use the CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow and black) color system, which does not have as large a color gamut. In fact many colors lack the purity and brilliance of the RGB system. Although vivid colors can be achieved at a very high price, this would have been cost-prohibitive. My purpose in writing these books is to make the information accessible at an affordable price. Return to top Color Voodoo books are electronic - they're designed for computer viewing. You don't need any special equipment. All you need is Acrobat Reader, which you probably have. And if you don't have Acrobat, it's free and you can download it at http://www.adobe.com/prodindex/acrobat/readstep.html Electronic books are similar to a text document with pictures. Since Color Voodoo was created on a computer using computer colors, you'll get very accurate colors at a fraction of the cost of a printed book. And you can always print a hard copy version as well! An added bonus is that navigation is much easier than a typical printed book. Instead of manually searching through a table of contents, indexes, and flipping through numbered pages, you have immediate access to pictorial thumbnails, bookmarks and clickable links. This makes finding things a delight. We regret that the books are not available in printed form. Most of the books contain more illustrations than words. Consequently, the cost of printing is so high. We've chosen to keep them affordable and not sacrifice the quantity and quality of the illustrations.
