Introducing Octavo, my Mac app for turning PDFs into booklets, cleaning up bad scans, printing zines, labels, and more.

If you follow me, you may have seen my #BuildInPublic journey developing it over the last few months! It's now launched, and is available on the Mac App Store for $25 (via in app purchase so you can try before you buy).

@amyworrall @jcdvore This is something I'm very interested in trying #bookbinding
@mlanger @amyworrall @jcdvore Just go for it. It makes me happy for years now and never boring.,

@kokien @amyworrall @jcdvore I've already done quite a bit of bookbinding, but I haven't converted any PDFs into books yet. I have to admit that I'm worried the printouts will come out wrong and I will have wasted a lot of paper. But I definitely should try this app.

I have a daily planner that I print out and bind every month. I've also made numerous notebooks. And when things finally quiet down for me this spring, I'll be making leather notebook covers to sell in a gallery with books I bind.

@mlanger @amyworrall @jcdvore I am new here and I misinterpeted your post. I like the idea of printing a journal monthly and binding it. For printing pdf s I go to a copy shop and they are very helpfull.
@kokien @amyworrall @jcdvore Well, you replied to my reply regarding an app that converts PDFs into signatures for binding. That's what I'm interested in trying. I've already been bookbinding for a while now.
