The softcover cover
I had some extra space on the back cover so I added an extra table of Character Names, exclusive to the physical edition.
Color quality is pretty good, I quite like how these full-art-with-table pages came out.
My proof copy has a slight misalignment in the print but I'm told it's within the tolerances (1/16th of an inch) of the print-on-demand process. If your copy has a larger printing error please reach out to DTRPG support.
On my copy the inner margin is a bit tighter than expected, but nothing runs off into the gutter and the softcover can lay mostly flat in use. In future products I'd probably just budget a slightly wider inner margin. The slim white gutter in the middle is due to the variance on my proof copy.
And with that, the campaign is complete! Once it's approved the softcover will also be available for purchase at DTRPG. A final thanks to everyone who backed and helped bring Life Paths into existence!
The softcover files have cleared Pre-media processing with the printer and I have ordered a proof copy. It will take 3-7 weeks to arrive but once it has I will ensure the print is all good and then send out the softcover codes to backers. Print cost for the book comes out to $9.35 and shipping to my location was $4.50.
The Life Paths PDF is finished and sent! Check your email for a DrivethruRPG code to add it to your account. The actual product page will go public in a few days once DTRPG approves it to go live. If you've not received an email with a PDF code, check your spam folder or reach out to [email protected] and I can try sending another one.
Next week I will put together the PoD file and begin the process of getting the Softcover set up. If you're not familiar, the process looks like this: This whole process can take up to six weeks based on the printer queue, and hopefully I can get the first Proof copy to be error-free, or else I have to repeat it all over again.
We're counting down to the imminent release of the PDF, ideally by Friday. For those who haven't responded to the survey yet, please do so by then to make sure your Backer Credit and DrivethruRPG email are correct!
Backerkit has cleared the funds and surveys are now going out to all backers, check your emails to respond with your Drivethrurpg email and your desired Backer credit name. There's also an add-on option in case you'd like to upgrade your pledge or buy additional print-on-demand codes for the softcover.
