Ill be honest on this I have like 4 or 5 Blender books. about months after I bought them a lot of the material was out of date now with 2.5 most of it is. I doubt I would buy another hard copy of a book. thats why I was saying it would be better for a video pod cast with subscriptions with weekly or monthly updates and a PDF included that has information about the tutorials that it discusses. I would buy it. Also if the podcast wasn't tutorial heavy I wouldn't bother with it. Even if the Material was being over lapped or Material that had already been covered. <br>

Does POD (Print on Demand) fit with this vision?<br><br>Pediapress makes printed books right out of wiki, and takes care of the entire process. The catch is, I do not know how the earning would be split with the Blender Foundation.<br>
<br>See <a href="http://pediapress.com/" target="_blank">http://pediapress.com/</a><br><br>Another approach is to install the odt export extension to export the wiki to an odt file. We can edit that file further with OpenOffice Writer and then fire a pdf.<br>
<br>The pediapress default output is actually geared towards a B/W printed version (for example, it will not create bookmarks in the pdf; and it will remove any color attribute from the text.). But if the wiki is maintained on a dedicated server, then several config tweaks are available from prediapress to create a online version of the pdf. <br>
<br>In fact, we can create both versions of pdf.<br>
