Transcript of Lulu Publishing Wizard: Getting Started

When you are ready to create your printed book, click Create > Create Print Book to open the book builder.
Here you will choose the type of book you wish to create. You can choose from popular preformatted options or build your own book by selecting from the options listed below the specifications panel.
What is the title of my book?
You have
a story to
share.

How do you
get started?

Create a Lulu.com account.
Click Create > Create Print Book.

Our Book Publishing Wizard will
guide you through the process.

Access and Distribution Options
The accessibility settings you choose here determine whether your book can be submitted to other online retailers. If you plan to sell your book on other retail sites, choose, Sell on Lulu, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and more. This option will allow you to assign an ISBN to your book.
Title and Author Fields
Use proper title punctuation. What is entered here must exactly match the title as it is displayed on your title page.

If your title includes a subtitle, enter both in the title field, separated by a colon (Title: Subtitle).

The author name should be entered as you wish it to appear on the book's cover. Include middle initials in the first name field (Alfred E.). Include professional credentials in the last name field (Newman, Ph.D).
Choose this option if you wish to apply an ISBN to your book. An ISBN is required to sell your book on retail sites such as Amazon.com.
Helpful Tips:
Congratulations!

You have now designed, named, and decided how you want to share your story.

In the next steps of the publishing wizard, you will upload your completed manuscript, create your book cover, and write a brief book description to capture the attention of your potential readers.

Each product line allows authors to choose from affordable, high quality options.

At this time, it is not possible to insert color pages into a black & white print book. If your book requires color illustrations, the entire book will be printed as if every page were printed in color.

Am I publishing for a limited audience or do I want to sell my book on Lulu and other online retailers?
