The purpose of this one is simple. Most likely everyone here knows I run Fae Corps Publishing and I have been doing this in the background for a while now. I plan on talking clearly about the tools I use for publishing, and the way that each one works. Demystifying what I do. Is that to say that I will be making my own self unnecessary? No, because my experience is valuable. I just feel like so much of the process is made out to be harder than it needs to be.

I listed the programs I use before in a previous post.

I am currently having issues with my pc. My go to pdf program glitched in the reinstall and my license is not working. I really don’t have the money to buy it again. So while I do the email chain to get the company to fix the issue, I still need to have a functional solution for pdf editing.

So I spent some time searching for a free option. I had been told that I can do some of my stuff in Libre draw which comes in the Libre office suite. I have found that one is true. Libre Draw will allow me to fix the covers and even do most of what I need to do.

I also found pdf gear. it is good for signing pdfs. it has some of the editing abilities I needed. it’s also free.

I don’t know if I will be using the program I had paid for again – I will not pay for it again so if I don’t get the problem fixed I will be just dropping it off my favorite list. I got several years of work from my purchase. So, if they can’t restore the license I won’t be that upset. I will just move on to completely freeware.

I will leave on the bottom of the post the upcoming calendar. I feel like that will help. As You can see this changes slightly each week. Things get adjusted because Authors are not ready or I get a book that I had promised space.
