Blurb PDF to Book Capability

->> One of the biggest drawbacks I have had with Blurb was being forced to use their templates for page creation. It appears you now have the capability to create a book in your own design program (Ex InDesign) and upload them a PDF for printing.

Here is a link with more info.

->> Kevin,
I've been making books through Blurb with inDesign for almost a year and half before the PDF function. You didn't have to use their templates if you exported the pages from ID as jpeg files and then inserted the files in full bleed pages. I am glad to see that they added the feature to their services which should make my work a little faster.
