Printing eBooks in Thailand

Saturday, December 15th, 2007 by Jason

We have opened a new service which is personally exciting for me and beneficial for the software community in Thailand: an eBook printing, binding, and delivery service, called Siam eBook Printers.

If you have an ebook in PDF format, just attach the file on the web page and provide your delivery address. In a few days, a nice bound volume arrives at your door from EMS. If you’ve ever seen these shops in malls and universities that print and bind books, then you know exactly what this is, except we do it over the web.

We are aiming directly at foreigners and I.T. professionals in Thailand. Here is what makes Siam Book Printers unique:

  • Everything is in English
  • We cater to busy people. You attach a PDF on the web site, and you receive EMS packages.
  • We guarantee no mechanical errors, smudges, missing pages, or other flaws. If you are dissatisfied, we will send you a replacement book.
  • There is no guesswork; you preview exactly what you will get.
  • Besides standard bank transfers, we accept credit card payments and PayPal. We accept payment in Thai baht or U.S. dollars.

Personally, having eBooks printed is one of my favorite activities in Thailand. When done right, the end result is quite beautiful. Ever since I had The Debian System from No Starch Press made into a hardback, I have been hooked. I doubt the site will be successful financially; but my goal is to reveal and simplify the eBook printing process to more foreigners and software professionals.

Finally, Siam Book Printers is a platform to promote free software in Thailand. We offer discounts for eBooks about free and open source software. When you order a book about free or open source software, just click the checkbox to receive your discount!
