How to promote my photo book
Hi everyone:
I recently published (self) a book of my photos on Amazon. It is called Urban Dada, and it is my vision of street art/posters/ephemera as abstract collage art.
My question is this: I would like to send copies of my book to various experts in the genre to get their perspective and (hopefully) recognition. Is this a good idea? Is this how it is "done" professionally?
Or should I try to win a contest or show in a gallery first????? (presuming I succeed at those).
I also wondered if it was more appropriate to send them actual hard copies of the book or email them a PDF of the whole book. I know nothing about photography promotions or etiquette.
Perhaps you know of a way that is more effective/acceptable/ commonly done?
Thanks!

Hi, J.
Something went wrong with my pdf reader. I wanna convert pdf into text first. I wonder do you have any experience about pdf to text conversion toolkits. I want to look for a fine toolkit whose way of processing is simple and fast to help me with the relevant pdf conversion process.

It will be better if it offers free trial package for users to check. If so, I will try it later and send you feedback soon. Any suggestion will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
