|comment=Zimbabwe In Pictures (ZIP) uses the latest in print-on-demand colour printing technology that enables us to offer such a niche book worldwide to a global audience. In glossy coffee table format with large print runs and a centralised stock simply would not be viable as the volumes won't justify it. The next book in the series covering Guatemala and Belize will break new ground for those countries too, and perhaps be even more niche than Zimbabwe. The new world of colour printing is enabling us to take on projects like this that will have small volumes - and excitingly also release them as eBooks - try ZIP on the Amazon Kindle on a PC or iPad and you will see the pictures in incredible detail. Reaction to this groundbreaking project has been excellent with plaudits from around the world - in fact, the printers Ingram have asked to use ZIP as a sample to demonstrate what on-demand printing is capable of. We'd love to do ZIP as a hardback gloss print, but would need a large corporate sponsor to do that to underwrite the stock.
