High page counts

Looking at the info on lulu pages it seems that there is no book option that allows for a book to be printed with 1,000 pages. Is there any way around this or do I need to find another print solution? Thanks in advance.

1. Make 2 Volumes

2. Use  a larger page size

3. Use a smaller font.

Re: High page counts

A great pity as I note LS goes to 1200 pages. Thank you for your response.

Re: High page counts

It's all relative anyway.

The first book I created here I decided to cut in to part 1 and 2, not because of the max page count possible, but due to the shocking cost of creating it as one book!

But Ken is right. Is the max page count here not 800? 1200 is not a lot more as a percentage, so by doing as Ken suggests about reformatting you can reduce the page count.

I have just had a look at one of the thickest books I own and the page count is 650.

740 for perfect bound paperback and 800 for hardback.

 

My largest book is 712 pages, any thicker and it gets difficult to hold in ones palm.
