PRINT FAQ

What do I need to provide for a print wraparound cover?

When requesting a print cover, please have the following ready:

Book size (trim size) – Popular sizes (in inches) include: 5″ x 8″, 5.25″ x 8″, 5.5″ x 8.5″, and 6″ x 9″.
Interior page color – White or cream.
Final formatted page count – This must come from your final formatted file. If you haven’t formatted yet, I offer formatting for both print and eBooks.
Back cover content – Your back cover text plus anything else you’d like included, such as:

ISBN –

- If using Amazon KDP, they can provide a free ISBN.
- If printing with Ingram, please provide your ISBN so I can download their template. I can get the correct template for you, but I need the ISBN first.

About “variations for multiple retailers”

Unless you request otherwise, I design for Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) by default.

First print cover: $45
Each additional retailer version: + $20 (to adjust to their unique template)

Example:
KDP + Ingram = $45 + $20 = $65
KDP + Ingram + Barnes & Noble = $45 + $20 + $20 = $85

If you’d like to provide your own template PDF, you can generate one here:
