There isn't anything inherently prohibitive with printing the 4-sided
brochures onto single pages if you happen to have extra inkjet
cartridges kicking around ;-) We should also be able to provide a
PDF that "local" print shops can print/copy on demand. At least
that's what I'm hoping for....
I actually think we'll find that the larger print run options
actually end up being more affordable than, say, taking to the local
retail/print shop for colour copies. At least after doing the
brochure copies for OSGeo's booth at FOSS4G I was left dreaming of a
better solution (better than $0.40 per page at a self-serve colour
copier for 2 hours :P ).
