Gather Recipes
- Request recipe forms from G&R or print out forms now to
distribute to potential contributors. Generally, groups need
300 to 600 recipe forms (consider 3 to 5 per potential
contributor) and 8 to 10 category envelopes (one for each
section in your cookbook). - Ensure that everyone knows where to return their recipes
by a scheduled deadline date. - Separate recipes into the appropriate categories, then sort recipes into the desired order within each category.

Type Recipes
- Type the recipes in any word processing program (for example: Microsoft Works, Word, Note Pad, InDesign, PageMaker) following
a few simple guidelines. - Double-check recipes for mistakes. Mistakes or typos found after
the book is formatted for printing will incur a $3 per item charge
to be corrected.
