Q. Why is Clarion Magazine printing books?

A. Clarion Magazine, the online publication, is very popular with Clarion developers, and we're proud of the massive library of information we've published in HTML and PDF form. So why are we now printing books? Because as handy as HTML and PDF documents are, for many of us they still aren't as convenient and, well, enjoyable to read as a printed, bound book.

We are continuing to convert Clarion Magazine's HTML pages to book form. There is a stunning amount of material to choose from; in a 7.5" x 9.25" book format, the Clarion Magazine web site contains some 6500 pages of Clarion articles. That's about two feet of shelf space! If there is sufficient interest we will consider publishing all of this material, but it would be impossible to bring it all to press in a short period of time. As a result, we're focusing our efforts on areas likely to be of most immediate interest to Clarion developers. Stay tuned for more book news! And if you have any questions just send us an email.

Q. How are Clarion Magazine's books printed?

A. All Clarion Magazine's books are perfect-bound, trade paperbacks with color covers, and are produced using print-on-demand (POD) technology. The interior of the book is printed on high quality, acid-free, book grade opaque paper. The printing service we use has produced more than 10 million books this way, for small and large publishers.

Q. Do I need a subscription to buy books?

A. No, a subscription is not required, but if you have not previously registered with Clarion Magazine you will be asked to do so during the purchase process. We keep your information confidential, in accordance with our privacy policy.

Q. Do you keep my credit card information on file?

A. We do not keep any customer credit card information. In fact, we don't normally even see it, since all online credit card transactions are processed on our behalf by InternetSecure, at their site.

Q. What is your refund policy?

A. If you are not satisfied with the book you have 30 days from shipment date to return the book, in new condition, to CoveComm Inc, publisher of Clarion Magazine, for a full refund or credit of the book purchase price.
