This could lead to different content and styles in different versions of the same book.
What was the difference between publishing and distribution? Releasing refers to the process of transforming content into electronic or paper publication, while distribution refers to distributing these publication to bookstores, libraries, online bookstores, and other channels. During the publishing process, the publishing company would usually be responsible for editing, proofreading, and publishing, and then submit these books to the printing house for printing and binding.
