InDesign to create the book (which was the same software we used when we
paid Josten's to produce our yearbook). This year, we've left Josten's
and bought a production-quality color printer so we can physically
produce the books ourselves (and move a lot of our off-site printing
jobs to an in-house solution--MUCH cheaper). Perhaps not the answer you
were looking for, but definitely fits the 'self-publishing' category.

What a timely post! I, too, have a yearbook question. Is anyone out
there
using web-based, self-publishing solutions such as Blurb's BookSmart
(blurb.com) or Lulu (lulu.com) to put out t
heir own yearbooks? I've been testing out Blurb, which has great
layouts...but its BookSmart software runs SO slowly - even on a speedy
computer, and seems to be difficult to have multiple contributors on
different machines. Lulu is nice because you can upload your own PDFs
from
layouts you create using the layout program of your choice. However, I'm
wondering what else is being used by this esteemed group.=20
Thanks for your input.
