Should all the streets, restaurants and hotels in english or translated language or local language?
English is the first priority preference. If they aren’t any English names, likes in China, Pin Yin or local language can be used.
Should I include some place of interest 100km away from city in the city guidebook or separate it to Add-On Guidebook?
As long as you can plan your one day trip to the place of interest, you can include it to your city guidebook. Add-On guidebook is for place where you have at least 5 to 10 listing of hotels and restaurants.
Do I have any limitations on the length of the whole guide?
It would be around 20 pages as long as you can cover all the destinations for the city.
Is there any font and size to be followed?
You can use any font. The size should be either 10 or 12. Our designers would help you to resize and reformat the font when doing compilation.
Do I need to follow strictly on the A4trip content structure defined?
You are highly advisable to follow the content structure because it helps our designer in reformating the content to PDF. If you have any suggestions to the content structure, please keep Chin Seng informed. He will update the master content structure for all.
I have some great photo for the city and would like to include inside the guidebook. What should I do?
First, please make sure you have the ownership of the photo to avoid copyright issue. Then, please communicate with your assigned mapper and to the Desktop Publisher (DTP-peiwen) to add inside the guidebook, for example the city tour map.
How long should the history and overview of a city should be?
Not too lengthy. Half to one page should be enough. Introduction is the most important part to attract attention of the customer. Please put extra effort in this section. Cheers :) Happy Writing.
Which unit of measurement I should include for weather, rainfall and others?
It is advisable to put both units of measurement into guidebook, e.g. degree/fahrenheit, mm/inches, etc.
Which currency I should use in the guidebook? Local currency or USD?
It is recommended to follow the currency accepted by the local at certain place. Generally, use USD for those high class hotels and restaurants. Use local currency for small transaction at those stalls, internet cafe services etc. If you are not sure, putting both currencies is the safest.
