You can allow your contributors to order printed cookbooks on their own instead of having you as editor order bulk and distribute to others. One note: as with all printing, the more copies ordered at one time, the better price per book. If your contributors order 1 or 2, the per book price could be much higher than if you order 10 or 20.
To enable contributor cookbook ordering, go to Editor Activities>Printing & Publishing. Click the "Contributor Ordering Settings" shortcut. Then select the options you want available to your contributors:
- 1. None - cannot order. Select this if you do not wish anyone other than you as editor to order printed cookbooks
- 2. Selected versions below only. Select this to allow contributors to print any prior version of your cookbook that has been printed. They cannot order a "current version" of the cookbook.
- 3. Current cookbook only. Select this to allow contributors to print out the current cookbooks "as is" in its current state and settings any time. They will be required to run a cookbook preview first to update the system.
- 4. Current cookbook or selected versions below. Select this to allow contributors to print the current book "as is" as well as any of the selected versions below
