Printing and rule book design questions

[alanwalker]

Hi,


I am designing the rule book for my game and have a few questions about printing.



1. if my players book is a non-standard size (like all the fantasy flight rule books which i think are 11 X 11) what can i expect for an additional cost vs going with standard sizes (letter, legal, etc)?



2. when designing the rule book - should i keep things pretty straight forward for simplicity or would some artistic flair be more appealing? Stuff like you might would see on a brochure. (some parts having black background with white or colored text)

Please help.

Thanks!



I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
