Self-publishing of travel books
Today, changing markets and technologies also enable freelance authors to publish books. Against this background, we offer our 123map-Publisher product in the niche market for hiking and travel guides.
From draft to publication
Use our website www.map-machine.com to design and plan the overview and detailed maps you need at your leisure. You can save your maps there permanently as a draft and revise them again later. After each step, you can download free high-resolution map designs for layout.
Only when your publication is almost finished do you buy the maps and incorporate them into your project. This ensures that you can publish cost-effectively. The maps can then be used without fear of license violations.
Instructions for creating maps
Together with the travel guide author Katja Seidel, we have created an application manual for our online offering for aspiring self-publishers. It contains 35 pages with many examples explaining in detail every step towards successfully using our publishing product. The author describes her first steps with our application in detail. From the creation of an overview map to the detailed maps for her hiking guide "Canoe tours".
