Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) PDF electronic book
publishing by LD Pierce is a service for genealogists to enable them to publish the
results of their genealogy research simply and inexpensively. Most genealogists would like
to be able to share their research with family members, other researchers, and libraries.
Working from a GEDCOM file provided by the genealogist, LD Pierce uses state-of-the-art
software to produce beautiful,
Electronic PDF books in National Genealogical Society Quarterly Modified Register Format,
complete with full name index, ready for your relatives, co-researchers, libraries,
and customers to print on their own printer at their home or office. Or they can download
the book and just read it onscreen and no need to print it since it works just like a
book.. In other words, this process converts a GEDCOM file to a Electronic PDF copy of the book. What do you mean "Electronic Publishing Method"? Using a GEDCOM as input, we produce output to a MSWord 97, Quark Express, or Pagemaker file in a variety of formats. This output file is then edited to include necessary introduction, preface, and headers for the book. The software automatically produces a complete full name index at the back of the book. We then print the book using an electronic printing process which allows us to produce the electronic document.. Printing an electronic document helps minimize the initial cash outlay required. The procedure is much more complicated if you have an existing out of print book, which is not inputted into a computer genealogy program. Call or Write for information about this conversion. If normal publishing methods are used, the genealogist must decide in advance how many copies of the book is to be printed. If 50 books are published in this manner, the genealogist incurs an initial cost of approximately $1,500 (50 copies times $30 per typical copy cost). Electronic PDF , publishing enables the genealogist to minimize the initial cost of publishing, plus allows immediate distribution via internet download. The books can be purchased with mastercard or visa in a secure transaction environment. The books can be purchased and downloaded and ready to read and enjoy in 20 minutes!! What Steps Are Necessary to Publish The Book Here are the steps to convert your GEDCOM or FTW file to a Electronic PDF book:
