5. 500 YEARS AGO … THE MIDDLE AGES
Books were only
HANDWRITTEN
and it took
ONE FULL YEAR for
ONE MONK
to create
ONE GREAT BOOK !
6. THEN JOHANNES GUTENBERG’S PRINTING SYSTEM
DISRUPTED THE PUBLISHING INDUSTRY
Then Gutenberg’s
invention made
PUBLISHING
SCALABLE.
One man could
produce HUNDRED
of books.
7. IN 2013… PUBLISHING IS A HEADACHE !
Editors still create their books
for PAPER…
Then outsource it to get an
iPAD VERSION
Another outsourcing for
ANDROID VERSIONS
Another outsourcer for
SMARTPHONES
Another one for
WINDOWS 8, for the Nook,
for Kindle, for Kobo…
8. IN 2013…. YOU NEED AGAIN 12 MONKS
TO GET EBOOKS
WELCOME
BACK
TO THE
MIDDLE AGES !
9. BUT THE SOLUTION EXISTS….
Gutenberg Technology brings
publishers the tools to make digital
publishing simple, scalable and multi-
device.
12. BUT WHAT IS A BOOK ?
(from Wikipedia)
A book is a set of written, printed, illustrated, or blank
sheets, made of ink, paper, parchment, or other
materials, usually fastened together to hinge at one side.
A set of text-filled or illustrated pages produced in electronic
format is known as an electronic book, or e-book.
The FIRST BOOKS … were on TABLETS and PAPYRUS
PERHAPS WE FORGOT IT BUT
PUBLISHING ON A TABLET AND ON
PAPER IS OLD…. And NEW AGAIN
