A “self-publisher” is an individual who is engaged in the publishing of their own printed material. Recently there has been an increase in authors who want to self publish. This increase in self publishing has meant that there is now a huge demand for short run printing. This means that self publishers need to have access to the kind of print quality that only comes from the equipment of large scale commercial printers.

Rather than using commercial publishing companies, short run book printers are a great option since you are able to order any amount, from 11 to 5000. Commercial printers who do short runs allow the self publisher to save a huge amount of money. This is often the difference between publishing and not publishing for many authors from trade books to manuals, and handbooks to text books.
