old dotphoto book info

For many years, dotphoto provided the dotphoto Book or Eurobook through a relationship with CEWE, a large German book printer. In 2019, CEWE sold its interest in its U.S. operations to Smilebooks.com, which shut down all U.S. partners. Subsequently, Smilebooks shut down, and all operations were transferred to CEWE. dotphoto offers a new book service that is available online.
