The origin of DK Publishing House:

Dk was created by two bosses who took a word from their names and combined them together. The company made its fortune by publishing graphic reference books, and its "Eyewitness" series of graphic books boasts sales of tens of millions of copies worldwide. Many people may not know what specific books DK has published, so just take a look: "Ingredients Encyclopedia", "Family Medicine Guide", "Medicine Encyclopedia", and then there are travel guides, mechanical encyclopedias or knitting guides, etc. Doesn’t it look “very unartistic”, like a book that was saved? But these are world-class bestsellers, each of which has sold six to seven million copies, or even tens of millions of copies, and the copyrights are marketed globally.

Don’t think that this kind of monster publisher has no publishing ideals. DK’s creativity, editing, typesetting and marketing concepts have changed and influenced the global graphic publishing industry. DK started as a studio creating books for other publishers, and internationalization has been an important concept for DK Books since then. The use of more pictures makes DK books different from the beginning. It emphasizes pictures and texts, which makes DK books easier to read and understand.

It also aims to create books that can be sold in the market for a long time. Many of DK’s books created in the 1970s have sold millions of copies, and are still being revised and reprinted.
