How to properly create files
In order to create files for printing Bodonian-style Case-Bound Books, you will have to prepare three different files. Letโs have a look at them!
1. Cover file
Once the product is set, download the template - either in INDD or PDF format - on the dedicated webpage. Open the file and place the graphic designs as shown in the image above.
2. Endpaper file
The front endpaper will cover the spine and about 1.5cm of the first and fourth page of the cover: a good idea to customize your product could be placing the title on the spine and colouring it with a colour which is similar to the one chosen for the cover. Basically, the back endpaper will cover the second and third page of the cover: make sure you leave the indicated space blank so that the glue can perfectly fit the spine.
3. Interior File
The file for the interior shall be created on a single page, from the first page to the last one, with a 5mm bleed for each side.
Checklist
Always remember that your file has to comply with the following features that apply to every file:
- 1:1 scale and 5mm bleed for each side
- CMYK colour model
- High-quality PDF
- Images resolution: 300ppi
