Customized Large Print Books

You don't have to be legally blind or visually impaired to enjoy reading books in large print. Now you can have textbooks, Bibles, cookbooks and novels in the font size and colors that you need to make reading easy.

Standard print is a 10- or 12-point font, but many people find that 14-point print size is more comfortable for them. Legally blind people may need much bigger print, such as 18-, 21, 24, 36, or even 44-point letters.

Some people also find that books printed on colored paper, rather than the standard black ink on white paper, are far easier to read.

Huge Print Press customizes print and electronic books to meet your large print reading needs.

When you visit the website for Huge Print Press, you won't find a catalog of books from which you can order. You can't call them or email them and ask for a catalog. Instead, you decide what book you want customized, and you then specify the attributes that you want that book to have.

For example, let's suppose you are a college student or teacher, and you have a textbook that you need in large print. Just visit the Huge Print Press website, enter your contact information along with the name and author of your book. Then choose a font size from 14 to 44 point and either hardcover or softcover binding. Submit the information to Huge Print Press on their easy-to-use web-form and just sit back and wait for your price quote.

You can also request customized colors and other traits that will help make your book hasy to read. If you want your book in electronic text format, you will not only be able to read it in large print, but you can also use the text with speech synthesizers and braille displays.

Huge Print Press promises quick turnaround and true customization of the text, not just a blown-up version of the original. All hardcopy books are 8.5 by 11 inches, and text is reformatted to fit the pages correctly as required by the font size you choose. Electronic texts are reformatted so that they read easily and sensibly on the screen, rather than displaying as a jumbled mess.

One partner in Huge Print Press became involved with the company as a visually impaired Boston University law student who was himself experiencing problems with obtaining classroom materials in large print. The company motto is "helping you read again".

Whether you are a student, a teacher, a professional, or someone who just loves to read, you will find that Huge Print Press can help to make reading fun and easy.
