Le magazine Locus passe en numérique

[jerome]

Le magazine Locus proposera une version numérique de ses prochains numéros.

Toutes les infos sont ici.

Starting January 2011, we will be launching our first digital editions of Locus magazine. Subscriptions will be available in, at minimum, PDF format, and we hope to have e-pub and Kindle versions also. We plan to primarily distribute from our own website, though we will be looking into other distribution options as well. Many of our readers have requested digital editions, and we are excited to be able to offer this alternative.

If you use an e-reader, you already know that e-pub format is problematic for magazines, graphic novels, and any documents that are image heavy or use columns. As a result, we have spent several months working toward creating a readable, searchable, and enjoyable e-pub experience for our readers. We have to reformat the layout of the entire magazine each time to produce the digital version, but it's worth the extra work, and as the technology continues to develop (and magazine and graphic novel digital publishing is seeing some serious development right now) we will also continue to fine-tune our own process. Thank you for your patience with us as we make this leap.

We will post more information to this page as we have it. Subscriptions and single-issue sales of digital Locus should be made available both here and on the regular subscription page. Stay tuned!
