Belgium's La Derniere Heure released an edition Tuesday in which all photos and advertisements are in 3D, and readers are given cardboard 3D glasses with every copy, ABC News reported today. Text is not three-dimensional.It took two months to create the 3D edition, which had a print run of 115,000, higher than usual. Editor Hubert Leclercq told ABC News that the paper was following the trend of the recent rise in popularity of 3D films, television and video games.
However, future 3D editions have not been planned, due to high production costs.
Leclercq said is is not aware of other European papers publishing full 3D editions, although 3D images have appeared in the press before, 9 News reported.
