Hi Guys!

Here are Rage's weekly news!

• Pages 45-52 are now available in the Preview Section!

• The Rage Apps : There's a new update of the Rage Web App on the way. All four versions. I would say that this time, there isn't any bug, since I corrected the ones I have found, and haven't found any other, but you never know. Write me if you find anything. Updates should be available by the end of the week.

• Printed publication: good news and bad news. The good news is that Amazon has launched a few years ago a fantastic Print-On-Demand service called CreateSpace. Fantastic because it allows you to just post a PDF file of your book, and have it sold on Amazon as a printed book just like that. What's intersting is that you don't have to pay for a fixed number of copies of the book. The client clicks a button and a book is automatically printed for him by Amazon and sent to him. Ideal for people like me, save for one little detail: There's a 400 Mo limit for the uploading of a PDF file. So the bad news is I can't print it unless I downsize the resolution of the file. Too bad for me. No printed version yet.

• Portfolio: Nearly there. I'll keep you posted.

• Digital publication : Last week, I planned to do the conversion of my book for digital publication in a catalog… and ended up working on finding ways to correct the remaining bugs of my apps instead, which can be very time consuming. This week, I am planning again the conversion of the book, but this time, I have to do it for a second publisher too. I hope I can get it done soon. More about it next week.

• Promotion: I will begin to get a handle on promotion once I get the portfolio and the book conversion done. The conversion of the book will be taking me some time, so let's talk about this next week.

And that's all for this week!
Eric
