Book publishing for San Diego authors
Self-publishing can be a daunting process, and book printing is far more than getting a price quote online. With over 40 years of experience, Direct to Press guides authors and small publishers through every step, and we regularly solve the cover and spine problems that stall many self-published books.
Our book publishing services include custom design, printing, binding and finishing, with soft-cover, coil binding and saddle-stitch options. You approve a hard-copy proof of both the cover and the inside pages before the run, so the finished book matches what you expect, with vivid color and sharp images.
Book printing and self-publishing help for authors in San Diego, La Jolla, Carlsbad, Escondido and across Southern California.
