What we will show

Everything runs live at the booth, on real documents. Email a manuscript or a few camera-ready PDFs to clemens@lodepublishing.com before your visit, and we will put them on screen.

Typesetting in real time

Watch an 800-page book update as we type. Every line break, footnote, and margin exactly as it will appear in print. No compile cycle, no waiting.

Proceedings, assembled live

From accepted paper to registered DOI, on one platform: compliance checks, session ordering, DOI stamping, Crossref and JATS export. Ready.Pub is already production-proven with IAHR in 2026: HIC 2026 (Zaragoza), the 9th IAHR Europe Congress (Luleå) and ISE 2026 (Lausanne).

Manuscript to bookstore

Import Word, Markdown, or LaTeX; generate the cover with correct spine width and barcode; check the print files against Lulu's print requirements and export the EPUB for ebook platforms.

Meet the developer

Clemens Lode, author of 10 books of his own with 20+ produced for clients, is at the booth all five days. Questions about LaTeX, publishing workflows, or your specific project are exactly what the booth is for.
