Around the world a notable number of charitable and related organizations pull together cookbooks containing interesting recipes as a means of raising funds for a given charity or not-for-profit organization. The problem with cookbook fundraising campaigns is the high cost associated with laying out and setting up a cookbook manuscript for printing, production and sales. Indeed, the costs associated with pulling together a cookbook, with laying out the manuscript, can be so extensive that the actual amount of money raised in the venture becomes minimal.
Recently, some innovative technical designers have created cookbook software. In point of fact, there are two kinds of cookbook software on the market. The first is the cookbook turned into electronic form. The second version, which we discuss here, is the cookbook software that allows a person or group to actually turn a set of uncollected recipes into a cookbook manuscript.
Cookbook software designed to turn recipes into an actual cookbook that can later be printed and published operates under a principle rather similar to that of screenwriting software that has been available on the market for about ten years. The concept behind cookbook software is that a person using the same can simply type in information – in this case, recipes – and the cookbook software will then format the information inputted into appropriate recipe form. (In a similar vein, screenwriting software allows a person to input text that is then automatically formatted into proper screenplay form and style.)
As mentioned previously, cookbooks are popular fundraising tools for a number of groups and organizations around the globe. Some groups even depend on the income from such a project for its activities. Cookbook software helps to reduce a major cost associated connected with the creation of a benefit book, thereby increasing the amount of money that can be raised for the project at hand.
