ISSUU VS MIXAM

I started to put measures into getting my publication physically printed through the online service Mixam. I ordered paper samples and worked out how to convert files to ensure printing was seamless. Upon doing this I quickly realised that this may not be the most effective method of handing in my publication. Due to the pandemic my hand in is all digital and therefore a printed version would be difficult to mark. As much as I want to have a physical copy of the magazine it is important that I meet current requirements. I found the website Issuu where you upload a PDF version of your magazine to create a flipbook very similar to someone flicking through a magazine. Today I finalised my understanding of the website by uploading my second year magazine to ensure the outcome has been done justice. I love how viewers can flick through pages and pause when requires. For my FMP submission I will be using Issuu. I am keen to get my publication printed over summer so I have a source for interviews and for my personal portfolio.
