[QUOTE="dmccoy1693, post: 4395702, member: 51747"] I've been a regular PDF customer for over 3 years now. I have 3 different methods. In order of preference: 1) If the book is between 32-180 pages and friendly with Staples printing software*, then I take it to Staples, have them print it out front and back sided on the page and have it spiral bound, clear plastic cover and vinal back cover. I LOVE SPIRAL BINDING. And this method is very cost effective. 2) If its shorter then 32, larger then Staples max spiral binding page count, or not Staples printer friendly but is home printer ok (no wierd paper backgrounds that take up tons on ink/toner), then I'll print out individual pages as needed. 3) Those that don't fit in the above end up just staying PDFs and generally get used the least. *Perfect examples of a PDF that is not friendly with Staples software is Necromancer Games' Book of Eldritch Sorcery and Paizo's Pathfinder Chronicles Gazetter. The last page of both are not 8-1/2" x 11". Staples shrinks the page down to 8-1/2" x 11" and shrinks down every page to match. In Necromancer's case, the last page was landscape. Staples software rotated it to be portrit. It also rotated every other page in the document. I was unable to find any way around this and still never printed out the whole of the book. I was less concerned about printing out Paizo's books since I subscribe and get the PDF and the printed book. [/QUOTE]
