If you’re looking for a great solution to produce your own yearbooks & need software to do so, take a look at Yearbook Fusion by LumaPix. Everyone who I have spoken with regarding this software finds it simply unbelievable.
YearbookFusion is a software package specialized for yearbook layout.
It streamlines the process of creating yearbooks, church directories, and other database-driven album types.
YearbookFusion enables a yearbook advisor to
- Install a layout application with branding and page size defaults matching the publisher that provided the software
- Create a multipage album project with all pages stored in a single file
- Import a PSPA CD, building a database of students and faculty
- Perform database operations, such as moving students from one grade to another
- Create panel pages automatically
- Customize the panel page ‘look’ (knocking out frames, reshaping the grid, etc)
- Lay out the rest of the yearbook with candid pages, collage pages, etc
- Upload the results to the publisher for printing
YearbookFusion is targeted at publishers, labs and printing companies that work with multiple customers (either directly with schools or with photographers that work with schools).
Business advantages of YearbookFusion for publishers include:
- Locked templates matching publisher album specifications
- One-click uploading to the publisher facility
- Branding reflecting the publisher
- Superior ease of use
- Simple bulk licensing pricing and licensing

The company who licenses the software may distribute it to their schools and can create a pdf file of the yearbook and give it to any printer they choose.
The software is priced bewteen $100-$190 based on volume. Contact Bob Winkler at 1-888-753-4647 for more information.
