How to share preview of album with client

[Keepsakegirl]

How would I export the preview of an album to share it with the clients before sending it off to print? Is this even an option?

Thanks in advance for your help :)

At the moment you can't share online before printing. This will change soon (wink, wink).

For the time being, I recommend you export your book and save it. If your client downloads BookMaker they can view it in there by importing the book.

Sincerely,
MyPublisher

The client could also purchase it, too, that way right? If you are not marking up the book, that's a pretty neat option. If you are marking it up for resale...

Glad to know, however, that perhaps something is on the horizon for sharing. :-)

Thank you . I did consider this as an option but the book is marked up for sale and I wouldn't want them purchasing at MP cost.

Look forward to the update on supporting online preview (wink, wink).

Not sure if its allowed in the MyPublisher usage license or not... but...



You could always screen capture the My Publisher preview pages. Theres plenty of free screen capture applications out there. Snag it, or alt+prntscreen or many more.



Step 1 - Capture

Step 2 - ????? (save as pages in a PDF or as a jpgs for a webpage )

Step 3 - Profit!!!




Example - though I would have a small jpg on an html page for each individual 2page layout:

The pc version 2.2(unsure of the mac) now has a Share Book option. It's really cool because it makes a view only flash flip book you can send to your clients email. What I can't figure out is if after you order the book if that link then changes so the client can now purchase a book. I sent an email to support but haven't heard back from them. Anyway one know if this is the case?

[mypublisher]

Yes! We are very excited that our new BookMaker 2.2 for PC does allow you to Share a book before purchasing. These share only files are not available for purchase as they only a low-resolution version of the book.

Once your client approves the book, you can then place the order which sends us a high-resolution print quality file. This book also becomes viewable in our online BookStore and you can share the Book ID and password with people you would like to see it. People who you share your book will also have the option to purchase a copy for themselves directly through the BookStore.

What I'm confused about is if it gives the high-resolution upload the same ID and password as the low-resolution upload. I don't want my clients to order directly from My Publisher. How long does the low-resolution file stay online? Please help...I've sent 2 emails to your support service and haven't received an answer.
