Book Layout Requirements

Inside Text Pages:
We request the entire layout and formatting of the inside pages be saved as a PDF file with all fonts and images embedded and saved at a 300 dpi resolution.  The inside pages should be made to the finished trim size of the book (5.5 x 8.5, 6 x 9, 7 x 10, 8.5 x 11, etc.) and saved as 1 complete PDF file containing all pages.  Add blank pages wherever you feel is appropriate and end up with an (even) number of pages.

Outside Book Cover:
The outside cover should be composed together including the front, spine, and rear cover.  Extend an 1/8" bleed all around the finished trim size of the composed book cover.  Save as a PDF file with all fonts and images embedded and saved at a 300 dpi resolution.  Make sure to save your cover as CMYK.
