Print-on-demand (POD) publishing prints books in quantities as low as one copy, on demand, as opposed to traditional offset printing which requires large minimum print runs. POD is ideal for new authors and niche publications as it allows authors to retain all copyrights and earn a larger percentage of profits compared to traditional publishing. The advantages of POD include authors having total control over their book, low initial costs, and books being available quickly after submission. However, authors are responsible for their own marketing and ensuring retailers will buy back unsold copies. POD is suitable for various types of publications including translations, dissertations, out-of-print works, and business reports.
