Since I finished colouring my pages, I put the text on them using InDesign and created the layout, still using InDesign.
I ordered 5 copies in english and 5 in bulgarian using the online service PrintMyBook.co who print and deliver books using a pdf file provided. What I got looks good, the covers are harder than the inside paper, and the colours are looking good- of course not the same as the original, and there are a few pages that are darker than what I wished they would be. There are a few issues with the prints- even tough I left 5 mm bleed, there are pages that are cut way too closely and there is small amount of either text or image missing. Which is not fatal but still bothers the eye. I noticed a few typos after the print, so there is a list of a couple of things to fix. I am still glad I made those test copies because they give me an idea of how the project actually looks like and what to change and/or fix to make it better. I would not have time to fix those things and order and receive new printing copies before the hand- in date, so I would present to ones I already have. I am still proud with what I have created and hope it would be appreciated even with its little flaws.
