Why is Clarion Magazine printing books?
A. Clarion Magazine, the online publication, is very popular with Clarion developers, and we’re proud of the massive library of information we’ve published in HTML and PDF form. So why are we now printing books? Because as handy as HTML and PDF documents are, for many of us they still aren’t as convenient and, well, enjoyable to read as a printed, bound book. We are continuing to convert Clarion Magazine’s HTML pages to book form. There is a stunning amount of material to choose from; in a 7.5″ x 9.25″ book format, the Clarion Magazine web site contains some 6500 pages of Clarion articles. That’s about two feet of shelf space! If there is sufficient interest we will consider publishing all of this material, but it would be impossible to bring it all to press in a short period of time. As a result, we’re focusing our efforts on areas likely to be of most immediate interest to Clarion developers. Stay tuned for more book news! And if you have any questions just send us an email.
